EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print depicts the coastline of Egypt, specifically the area around Alexandria, during the historic time of the Battle of the Nile on August 1, 1798. The map, dated 1798, provides a detailed view of the Egyptian coast, with the delta region and the Nile River prominently featured. The Battle of the Nile was a pivotal moment in the Napoleonic Wars, as it marked the decisive defeat of the French Navy under the command of Napoleon Bonaparte by the British Royal Navy, under Admiral Horatio Nelson. This naval battle took place in the waters off the Egyptian coast, preventing the French troops from reinforcing their army in Egypt and ultimately leading to the withdrawal of the French forces from the region. The map serves as a fascinating historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the geography of the region during a time of great significance in world history. The intricate details of the map, from the labeled towns and landmarks to the precise depiction of the coastline, make it an essential resource for scholars, historians, and anyone with an interest in the history of Egypt and the wider world.
