Studies have focused mainly on the Mamluk and harem slaves of elite households, who were mostly white, and on abolitionist efforts to end the slave trade, and most have relied heavily on Western language sources. In recent decades new sources have become available, ranging from Egyptian religious and civil court and police records to rediscovered archives and accounts in Western archives and libraries. Along with new developments in the study of African slavery these sources provide a perspective on the lives of non-elite trans-Saharan Africans in nineteenth century Egypt and beyond. The nine essays in this volume examine the lives of slaves and freed men and women in Egypt and the region. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContributors: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKenneth M.
