Customer Reviews

Prompted by the earnest entreaties of his friends rather than by any wish of his own to relate his experiences, Mr. Slatin wrote these chapters. The author held high posts in the Sudan, traveled throughout the length and breadth of the country and, a perfect master of the language, he had opportunities which few others had to accurately describe affairs such as they were in the last days of the Egyptian Administration. While his experiences during his cruel captivity place him in a perfectly unique position as the highest authority on the rise, progress and wane of that great religious movement which wrenched the country from its conquerors and dragged it back into an almost indescribable condition of religious and moral decadence.
