Egypt -- Human ecology -- Irrigation -- History -- 1517-1882

In one of the first ever environmental histories of the Ottoman Empire, Mikhail examines relations between the empire and its most lucrative province of Egypt. Based on both the local records of various towns and villages in rural Egypt and the imperial orders of the Ottoman state, this book charts how changes in the control of natural resources fundamentally altered the nature of Ottoman imperial sovereignty in Egypt and throughout the empire.
