Footnotes
The 19th century hub of commerce, Port Said, was established in 1859 during the building of the Suez canal and is home to the famous Lighthouse of Port Said, the first building in the world to be made from reinforced concrete.
Of the city, Rudyard Kipling said, "If you truly wish to find someone you have known and who travels, there are two points on the globe you have but to sit and wait, sooner or later your man will come there: the docks of London and Port Said".
