A fourth part of Volume III, covering the period 1876-1879, was projected for publication, as were two further volumes, covering ‘L’administration du Khédive’ and ‘Le déclin du règne (1874-1879).’ In the event, the author’s death prevented the completion of this monumental history, and these volumes remain all that were published. |
