Publisher Description
In 1887, German merchant Karl (Charles) Neufeld was captured by the Mahdists and transferred to Omdurman, where he spent twelve years in prison.
This is his gripping account, translated from German into English and first published in 1899, the year of his release by the British Commander-in-Chief Hebert Kitchener. Neufeld retells in vivid detail his capture, torture and imprisonment by the Dervishes, the death of Gordon at Khartoum, and the conquest of the Sudan by the British Army.
An unmissable read.
Richly illustrated with a special picture and map pack.
