The opening of the book discusses the construction and significance of the Suez Canal, reflecting on both its engineering challenges and the various opinions that surrounded it during its development. Rohlfs provides an overview of the political and financial negotiations involved in its completion, describing the project's scale and the labor force required, including the use of native workers.
