The history of Hamdan Stable, once the largest Egyptian Arabian Horse breeding facility in Egypt and home of Hamdan, the treasured stallion whose rescue by the author's grandfather preserved an entire line of important horses. The author recounts his family's ongoing dedication to the Egyptian Arabian Horse. Since the dawn of recorded history, Bedouins, beggars, emperors and kings have coveted the Arabian Horse. The Prophet Mohamed taught that "every man shall love his horse." From the time of Mohamed Ali the Great, through Abbas Pasha and Ali Pasha Cherif, rulers of Egypt collected and cherished their equine treasures. Jealously guarded breeding preserved the purity of the Egyptian horse; today, Straight Egyptian Arabians are known for their exceptional intelligence, beauty and elegance as well as their rarity, as they account for less than four percent of all purebred Arabians in the world.As the old rulers of Egypt died, buyers from around the world took advantage of the opportunity to purchase some of the horses. Some were exported to Europe and America; the others remained in Egypt with wealthy, royal and titled Egyptian families. Realizing the significance of its equine treasures, the Egyptian government in 1908 formed the Royal Agricultural Society (today known as the Egyptian Agricultural Organization), gathering the best descendants of the Abbas Pasha and Ali Pasha Cherif herds in order to preserve their bloodlines for the overall good of the country.Among the kings of Egypt who continued to collect and cherish these horses was King Farouk I. Exercising his divine right as ruler, he claimed the rights to some of the most beautiful horses in the country. Thus did the exceptional stallion Hamdan leave the RAS herd and come to occupy the king's Inshass Stables.Upon Farouk's abdication in 1952, his belongings, including his treasured horses, were dispersed. Ahmed Pasha Hamza, the author's grandfather and Minister of Agriculture as well as Minister of Supply in Farouk's government, acquired Hamdan and made the stallion the foundation of his own stable, Hamdan Stables, which would become the largest breeding operation in Egypt. The story of Hamdan's survival - and that of the stables - through further upheaval in Egypt is offered in this book by Ahmed S. Hamza, a former director of the Egyptian Agricultural Organization and a member of the current generation of caretakers of "Egypt's treasure."

Hamza Bogary describes a bygone way of life that has now irreversibly disappeared. He speaks of life in Mecca before the advent of oil. Only partly autobiographical, the memoir is nevertheless rich in remembered detail based on Bogary's early observations of life in Mecca. He has transformed his knowledge into art through his sense of humor, empathy, and remarkable understanding of human nature. This work not only entertains; it also informs its readers about the Arabia of the first half of the twentieth century in a graphic and fascinating way. The narrator, young Muhaisin, deals with various aspects of Arabian culture, including education, pilgrimages, styles of clothing, slavery, public executions, the status of women, and religion. Muhaisin is frank in his language and vivid in his humor. The reader quickly comes to love the charming and mischievous boy in this universal tale.

I have written this memoir in the hopes that anyone who finds him or herself in the same situation growing up will not repeat these mistakes. I was on a path to struggle out of poverty. Anyone can get out of poverty provided one has the desire and the will. Poverty is like a disease. If you give in, it will suppress you to no end. You fight poverty in the same way you would fight a disease. You become ambitious and determine to find the mechanism that can lead you to a successful life. I was born in an undeveloped family who could not help me in my plight. However, I was rescued by a school teacher, Regis Henequin, who forcibly took me to school. Later in my life I was recruited by Major Butler of the Royal Signals of the British Army. After joining the army and serving for three years along the Suez Canal in Egypt, my eyes wide open. While in the British Army, I was still on the prowl for a life after the army. I was lucky to share my tent with a man named Gopal who was a tailor and made suits for officers. I was fascinated and began to spend more time with him. Visiting the city of Ismaelia, I saw on a stand a magazine advertising fashion designing by the Jean d'Arroux Academy in Paris. I bought the magazine and wrote to them. They replied and hence, I found an answer that carried me through my life as a fashion designer. Even though what I had learned through correspondence courses was insufficient for me to function, it was enough to motivate me to continue the direction. My stay with the Jean d'Arroux Paris Academy was brief but useful, and soon thereafter, I left for London. Life truly began to emerge from the darkness that had blinded me while growing up. I became curious and began to ask what made the British the way they were. In order to learn as much as I could I found that I had to learn the language of the people. No matter what you do, if you want to be successful, you will have to go through a language--in this case, it was English. I placed emphasis on the language and grew fast in London. I got married; my wife and I became engrossed in social work helping the Mauritian community settle in London. Officials recognized our efforts and that was when I met Mr. Wendel Coote, the First Secretary of the American Embassy, which resulted in our coming to the United States. Life in America was different than was expected and having lived in London, changes had to be made. The original plan to stay in America was six months but that was changed by circumstance hence the disorientation. My wife was pregnant with our son and she could not work; my endeavor was not enough to carry us through. The expectation was missing and the visiting concept was based on misunderstanding. But that was in the past and having lived in a country for over fifty years, life couldn't have been different otherwise.

The Intimate Life of Dissent examines the meanings and implications of public acts of dissent, drawing on examples from ethnography and history. Acts of dissent are never simply just about abstract principles, but also come at great personal risk to both the dissidents and to those close to them. Dissent is, therefore, embedded in deep, complex and sometimes contradictory intimate relations. This book puts acts of high principle back into the personal relations out of which they emerge and take effect, raising new questions about the relationship between intimacy and political commitment. It does so through an introduction and eight individual chapters, drawing on examples including Sri Lankan leftists, Soviet dissidents, Tibetan exiles, Kurdish prisoners, British pacifists, Indonesian student activists and Jewish peace activists.

Here is the first unabridged English translation of a major Indo-Persian epic: a panoramic tale of magic and passion, a classic hero’s odyssey that has captivated much of the world. It is the spellbinding story of Amir Hamza, the adventurer who in the service of the Persian emperor defeats many enemies, loves many women, and converts hundreds of infidels to the True Faith before finding his way back to his first love. In Musharraf Ali Farooqi’s faithful rendition, this masterwork is captured with all its colorful action and fantastic elements intact. Appreciated as the seminal Islamic epic or enjoyed as a sweeping tale as rich and inventive as Homer’s epic sagas, The Adventures of Amir Hamza is a true literary treasure.
