Men I knew

The offering here differs from the rest of the Akkad books, whether in the style or spirit in which Akkad wrote the subject of this book. Al -Akkad talks here about a number of personalities that he knew in his intellectual and political life such as: Ali Youssef, Mustafa Kamel, Muhammad Farid, Mustafa Lotfi Al -Manfalouti, Muhammad Al -Mawalihi, Dr. Yaqoub Sarouf, Jamil Sidqi Al -Zahawi, Muhammad Farid Wajdi, Sheikh Rashid Reda, Abdel Aziz Gawish Ibrahim Al -Helbawi, Jerji Zidan, Farah Anton, Ahmed Lotfi El -Sayed, Mirza Muhammad Mahdi Khan. Every man of those who met Akkad and knew him in his life on various occasions, and the estimate of Akkad differed for each of them, and his relationship with them differed, and the way he knew them differed, and the number of times he met them, but they are all similar in the fact that the Akkad had known them and he had with each of them The story of its narration in this book. The book is not a translation of a life for these men who Akkad knew, so he does not talk about them extensively or about their entire works and their effects except as much as it falls into the circle of memories that the writer roses with them. The Akkad showed this in the introduction to his book by saying: "This image is like tourist images that depict a general view, without providing a historical or geographical atlas of the place."
