Book Description
GENERAL GATACRE- THE STORY OF THE LIFE AND SERVICES OF SIR WILLIAM FORBES GATACRE, K.C.B., D.S.0, by BEATRIX GATACRE. Originally published in 1910. THE main object in laying this book before the public is to provide an authentic and accurate narrative of Sir William Gatacres work in South Africa. The first half of this story has been entirely dependent on the recollections of others, and in the latter half, the authors own personal knowledge of Gatacre and his affairs has enabled the author to seek the information from numerous sources. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book Description
The 1885 siege of the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, and the heoric death of Gen. Charles Gordon when its defences were overrun by the forces of the Mahdi is one of the great epics of Victorian imperial history. This account was written by one of the Intelligence Officers with the expedition which Gladstone s government belatedly sent down the Nile in an abortive bid to save Gordon. Wilson, although a personal friend of Gordon, is clear that the Mahdi was so determined to take Khartourm that the presence of the advance guard of the relieving force, - a paltry twenty men in two steamers - would have made no difference to Gordon s fate even if it had arrived a week earlier. With ten appendices and an end paper map.
