To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They very justly claimed that the rotten government introduced by the Turks had brought bankruptcy and rebellion in its trail, and in conse- quence " the Circassians were on no account to be entrusted with full administrative powers over the native". Of course, 'the English were "struggling for a policy", and this blinded them to all else, or they might have found, notwithstanding the banish- ment of the leaders of the Arabist movement, that there were still a few intelligent fellahs who, on be...ing brought under a British administration, and being as it were virgin soil, could have been moulded into the required administrative article. But the great difficulty was that the then adminis- trators knew no Arabic in fact, Lord Cromer him- self never did master it and were compelled to depend upon the " polished ", but for the most part incompetent Circassians, who, because they had held office under the old regime, and were now entrusted with administrative powers of a rather negative quality, considered themselves the only capable governors of Egypt.
