Summary "History of Egypt From 330 B.C. to the Present Time, Volume 12 (of 12)" by S. Rappoport is a comprehensive historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume delves into Egypt's complex past from the era of the Crusades through to the domain of the Ottomans and the early modern period, focusing notably on the transformations in governance and cultural influences during significant historical events. The book likely appeals to readers with an interest in the nuanced interplay between religious and political dynamics in Egypt's history. The opening portion of the book sets the stage by exploring the impact of the Crusades on Egypt's political landscape, emphasizing the multi-faceted motives behind these wars, which transcended mere religious ambition. It introduces key figures such as Saladin, who emerges as a central character in the narratives of the Crusades, showcasing military campaigns and alliances that shaped the region during this tumultuous period. Rappoport discusses the influence of Muhammad's teachings on the Islamic conquests and how this historical backdrop paved the way for the Crusaders' counter-movements, establishing a rich tapestry of narratives that reflect on Egypt's heritage and geopolitical significance.
