Description: With over 160 contemporary illustrations and six maps, this is the compelling story of the desert campaigns and their chief protagonists. On one hand, Egypt's first nationalist, Arabi Pasha; the charismatic Mahdi; and his successor, Khalifa. On the other, Garnet Wolseley, Charles Gordon and Herbert Kitchener. Here too are the men who fought: Egyptian conscripts, Dervishes, Kipling's "Fuzzy-Wuzzy', black Sudanese - fighting valiantly for Islam one day, in uniform for Egypt the next - and British and Indian regulars, Australian volunteers, Canadian boatmen, and the Royal Navy, all enduring the heat and thirst, the pitiless barren terrain.Hardcover, dustjacket.
