''The Suez Canal, The Eastern Question, And Abyssinia'' is a historical book written by William Foster Vesey Fitzgerald in 1867. The book explores the political and economic significance of the Suez Canal, which was completed in 1869, and its impact on the Eastern Question, a complex political issue that emerged in the 19th century regarding the control of the Ottoman Empire. Fitzgerald also delves into the Abyssinian War, a conflict between the Ethiopian Empire and the British Empire that took place from 1867 to 1868. The author examines the causes and consequences of this war and its impact on the geopolitical landscape of Africa and the Middle East. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the construction of the Suez Canal, including the diplomatic negotiations between the French and British governments, the financial backing of the project, and the engineering challenges faced during its construction. Throughout the book, Fitzgerald offers a critical analysis of the political and economic implications of these events, including the impact of the Suez Canal on global trade and the balance of power in the Middle East. Overall, ''The Suez Canal, The Eastern Question, And Abyssinia'' is a comprehensive historical account of the events that shaped the geopolitical landscape of the 19th century. It offers valuable insights into the complex political and economic issues of the time and their lasting impact on the world today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
