A Glimpse of Bazaar Life and Egypt’s Slavery Trade
The piece surveys bazar life in Upper Egypt and the coffee-house scene with detailed depictions of dress, customs, and social habits. It also describes slave markets with vivid images of Galla and Circassian women, pricing, and the harsh taxation and forced labor under the government, ending with a note endorsing Dr Klunzinger’s book for its authentic illustrations.
