The work focuses on the political intricacies and events surrounding the English occupation of Egypt, particularly during the time of Khedive Ismaïl and the subsequent Egyptian revolution. It aims to provide an insider perspective on the occupation, revealing the motivations and consequences of Britain's involvement in Egyptian affairs. The opening of the book introduces the author’s background and motivations, as well as a historical context for his involvement in Egypt's political landscape. Blunt reflects on his early diplomatic career, his initial perception of Egypt as a traveler, and the socio-political climate of the time, detailing Ismaïl’s lavish reign and the financial mismanagement that contributed to widespread poverty. Through personal anecdotes and observations, he sets the stage for a deeper examination of the events leading up to England's intervention, framing his narrative as an effort to convey an honest account of a tumultuous period that ultimately shaped Egypt's future.
