Storyline
De Lesseps is a young aristocrat who conceives the idea for the Suez Canal. When Napoleon fails him, the British show interest. Though the production values make the film entertaining its historical content is generally agreed to be awful.—Ed Stephan

A remarkable piece of historical production, with, however, considerably more emphasis on production than on history.
