Evelyn Baring, 1st Earl of Cromer GCB, OM, GCMG, KCSI, CIE, PC, FRS (26 February 1841 – 29 January 1917), was a British statesman, diplomat and colonial administrator. He was British controller-general in Egypt during 1879, part of the international Control which oversaw Egyptian finances after the khedives' mismanagement, and during the British occupation prompted by the Urabi revolt, agent and consul-general in Egypt from 1883 to 1907. Far from the centre of the Empire, Cromer ran the territory with great drive and his effective governance balked British wishes to withdraw from Egypt. In 1914, World War I broke out. The Khedive Abbas II supported the Ottomans, and was deposed by the British. This freed Baring to publish his impressions of the Khedive, “Abbas II,” in 1915. In his work "Modern Egypt" Lord Cromer brought the history of Egyptian reforms down to May 1907, at which date he left the country. His account of the political events connected which purely Egyptian affairs stopped at the date of Tewflk Pasha's death, which occurred on January 7, 1892. The subject of this volume is Tewfik's successor, Abbas11, who, after a reign devoted chiefly to attempting to undermine British influence and work in Egypt, espoused the cause of Turkey and forfeited his throne.
