Books by Dr Geoffrey Nash

Offers an alternative perspective on Britain's late imperial period by looking at the lives and the writings of the men who chose to defy the conventional social and political attitudes of the British ruling classes towards the Near East.

Examining a range of genres, including novels, memoirs, travel writing and journalism, this book explores representations of Muslims and Islam in modern English literature. Covering a range of texts and authors, it scrutinises the identity 'Muslim' by looking at its inscription in literary writing within the context of significant events.
