Produktinformationen zu „Khedive Ismail's Army / Cass Military Studies (ePub)“
"Khedive Ismail's Army examines military failure in the age of age of imperialism. On paper, the mid-nineteenth century Egyptian army seems a formidable regional power. It had a tradition of success, modern weapons, and mercenary officers with experience in major wars. Egypt's ruler, Khedive Ismail, hoped to combine the imported technology and brains with native manpower, and establish an Egyptian dominated Horn of Africa. His soldiers did conquer parts of the Sudan, but they suffered disastrous defeats during the Egyptian-Abyssinian War of 1875-1876.
"Khedive Ismail's Army provides the first detailed examination of the Egyptian-Abyssinian War in English and also looks at the root problems that made Ismail's soldiers ineffective. These include issues of class, racism, internal, and external politics, finance, and the rapidly changing world of mid-Nineteenth Century military technology. This book is aimed at military historians, and would also be of interest to those studying the Middle Eastor North East Africa.
