Sirdar and Khalifa or The Reconquest of the Soudan, 1898 is a historical book written by Bennet Burleigh. The book is set in the late 19th century and covers the events leading up to the reconquest of the Soudan, a region in Africa that was under the control of the Mahdist regime.The book follows the story of Sir Herbert Kitchener, the Sirdar (commander) of the British forces, and the Khalifa, the leader of the Mahdist forces. The two men are on opposite sides of the conflict, with Kitchener leading the British forces in an attempt to retake the Soudan, and the Khalifa fighting to maintain his control over the region.Throughout the book, Burleigh provides a detailed account of the battles and political maneuvering that took place during the conflict. He also explores the cultural and historical context of the conflict, including the role of religion in the region and the impact of colonialism on the people of the Soudan.Overall, Sirdar and Khalifa or The Reconquest of the Soudan, 1898 is a fascinating and informative book that provides a detailed look at a pivotal moment in African history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of colonialism, military history, or African history in general.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
