Mohammed Ali and His House

"Mohammed Ali and His House" paints a vivid, dramatic portrait of Muhammad Ali's rise to power and the intricate world of his family. Louise Mühlbach combines historical ambition with personal stakes, showing how political decisions, alliances, and rivalries ripple through generations. Against the backdrop of a changing empire, the story focuses not only on rulers and battles, but also on the private lives, ambitions, and loyalties that shape a dynasty from within. Packed with tension and courtly intrigue, the book offers an engaging look at how power is built, defended—and transformed—by the people closest to it. Mohammed Ali and His House is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1871.
