    Douglas Brooke Wheelton Sladen was an English author. He studied at Trinity College, Oxford, and went to Australia (1879), where he became the first professor of history in the University of Sydney. Subsequently he traveled much and settled in London as a writer. Poems by Margaret Thomas were included in a work in the 1880s.Sladen takes up his pen to describe the humours of Egyptian society, Egyptian servants, and, above all, the humours and delights of travel in Upper Egypt. He gives glimpses of all the everyday life of the Englishman in Egypt, from doing business (with Egyptians) to donkey-riding.He also devotes several chapters to the eccentricities of the Egyptian Court. The incidents in them were the actual experiences of a very high official and his wife, given to him for publication.Not less interesting to some people than the humours of Egyptian high-life, Egyptian patriotism and Egyptian morality will be the advice on curio-buying in Egypt when you have not much money to spend.The book is not entirely taken up with anecdotes and absurdities. Like Queer Things about Japan and Queer Things about Persia, it devotes half its pages to the monuments, the romance, the mystery, and the poetry of the Orient. The fascination of Egypt is extraordinary; its monuments are matchless.

  • - The Official German Justification of the War
    von Douglas Sladen
    32,00 €

    Published in 1914 at the start of the First World War this German book was printed in English and circulated under the title of The Truth About Germany, with the objective of influencing America against Great Britain. By a fortunate chance it became possible to give it to the British public, word for word, notwithstanding that every precaution was taken by the German authorities to prevent a single copy from entering Britain. In this edition all the book's misstatements are contradicted, paragraph by paragraph, in italics. Douglas Sladen was first professor of Modern History at Sydney University.
