Description:
Welcome to Khedival American Soldiers, a comprehensive digital collection dedicated to preserving the works of 48 American Civil War veterans who served in the Egyptian Army from 1869-1879. Ranging from explorers to engineers, from sixty year-old veterans to twenty-year old captains, and from Union to Confederate affiliations, this website captures their fascinating lives and how they experienced Egypt. Each soldier has his own folder filled with photographs, published works, and manuscripts as well. These items vary as much as their owners do, including, but not limited to: memoirs, diaries, scientific articles, reconnaissance reports, and novels.
