Hardback. First Edition. England's Pride. Slight foxing to end inside covers and edge. Slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. Price clipped to D/J. On January 26, 1885, General Gordon's heroic defence of Khartoum ended when the Mahdi's forces took the town by storm and stabbed Gordon to death. Two days later the advance guard of the relieving force steamed up the Nile and found the town in the Mahdi's hands. The tragi-comic story of the Expeditionary force that was sent to relieve Gordon has never been told in detail. It was led by Lord Wolsely, known in his day as 'our only General', it included a Camel Corps which contained the cream of the British Army's finest regiments. Why did it fail? My Symons tells the whole story, both political and military. This book is a vivid and exciting book on an unjustly neglected theme. Illustrated. 299 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.)
