A Lonely Minority

About the Book

A Lonely Minority was praised by Saturday Review as "a highly readable and urbanely authoritative account of the Coptic community of Egypt." Based on extensive research and travel, this sympathetic, but objective book portrays the struggle for survival by millions of Christians who take pride in being the "original Egyptians." The milestone account is as relevant today as ever.
