Under Queen and Khedive: The Autobiography of an Anglo-Egyptian Official is a memoir written by Walter Mieville, a British civil servant who spent most of his career working in Egypt during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book details Mieville's experiences as he navigates the complex political and social landscape of Egypt, working closely with both the British Queen and the Egyptian Khedive. Throughout the book, Mieville provides a firsthand account of the events leading up to the British occupation of Egypt in 1882, as well as the subsequent efforts to modernize and reform the country. He also discusses his personal relationships with key figures such as Lord Cromer, the British Consul-General in Egypt, and Tawfiq Pasha, the Khedive of Egypt. Mieville's memoir offers a unique perspective on the Anglo-Egyptian relationship during a pivotal moment in history. It sheds light on the challenges faced by British officials working in Egypt, as well as the impact of colonialism on Egyptian society. Overall, Under Queen and Khedive is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Egypt, British imperialism, or the intersection of politics and personal experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
