Description
The Journals of Major-Gen. C. G. Gordon, C.B., At Kartoum by Charles George Gordon
Published in 1885, this six-volume journal recounts the siege of Khartoum and the events leading up to its fall. Gordon's account of the siege, which lasted over a year, provides a unique insight into the daily life, battles, and survival mechanisms of the besieged city.
Smuggled out in parts, the journal offers a fascinating glimpse into the innovative tactics and strategies employed by Gordon and his small group of soldiers to defend the city against the Mahdist forces.
