The Sirdar and the Khalifa

Kitchener's Reconquest of Sudan 1896-98

Beschreibung

The Sirdar and the Khalifa examines Kitchener's campaign to re-conquer the Sudan and avenge the death of General Gordon: a war that began in 1896 and ended two years later with the epic Battle of Omdurman. The true story of the Omdurman campaign is a classic tale of British soldiers battling a fanatical enemy in the harsh terrain of the desert.
