Contents:

'Successful' division of water resources -- Agreement, institutions, and opportunities, 1936-1939 -- A valley divided : transportation difficulties -- Disguised exploitation : agricultural and industrial designs on the Sudan -- An expanded Sudanese market? : Egyptian exports to the Sudan -- An economic lifeline? : Egyptian reliance on Sudanese imports.

Subject: Most scholarship has attributed Sudanese independence in 1956 to British dominance of the Condominium, historical animosity toward Egypt, or the emergence of Sudanese nationalism. 'Dividing the Nile' counters that Egyptian entrepreneurs failed to develop a united economy or shared economic interests, guaranteeing Egypt's 'loss' of the Sudan. It argues that British dominance of the Condominium may have stymied initial Egyptian efforts, but that after the First World War Egypt became increasingly interested in and capable of economic ventures in the Sudan.
