Military war books of the Sudan War Campaign and the Egyptian Campaigns by leading book publishers. Historical books available from Cranston Fine Arts.

Tel El Kibir 1882

Sir Garnet Wolseley's campaign of 1882, completed in just 4½ weeks, was an almost 'textbook' operation, carefully planned and executed with masterly competence. Don Featherstone's narrative describes Wolseley's outflanking of the Egyptian forces via the Suez Canal, the advance to Kassassin and the decisive battle at Tel-El-Kibir - as well as the naval bombardment of Alexandria. It is supported by detailed orders of battle and graphics based upon highly accurate military cartography carried out by the victorious army.

Khartoum 1885

Back to Top

The Fall of Khartoum and the death of General Gordon at the hand of the Mahdi's army constituted one of the most colourful and controversial episodes of Britain's military history - a seemingly unfeeling Imperial government had 'let down' one of the nation's heroes. Here, Donald Featherstone, well known for his many books on military subjects and wargaming in particular, focuses especially on the battles fought by the relief columns.

Omdurman 1898

Back to Top

Completing Don Featherstone's Sudan/Egypt trilogy, this volume tells the story of the conquest of the Dervish Empire: the Dongola-Berber campaign, Firket and Atbara, culminating at Omdurman, one of the great desert battles in the imperial drama of the Victorian Era - hordes of native warriors set against British discipline and firepower, gunboats on the Nile, a dramatic cavalry charge, and Kitchener, the Sirdar, as the conqueror. With contemporary illustrations and colourful graphics, this book brings the whole campaign vividly to life.
