In the 19th century, when the Ottoman Empire restored direct rule
over Yemen, the resulting turmoil came to threaten the security of
the entire Arabian Peninsula. This book describes the various
military campaigns to regain control over Yemen, surveying the
increased foreign encroachments by the British in the south and the
Italians through the Red Sea, and the revolts of the Zaidi Imams
and Isma'ili tribes. Using previously unknown archival material,
this history of political rivalries and challenges confronting
Ottoman Yemen in the 19th century should prove useful for scholars
and students.
