Excerpt from The Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, Vol. 1 of 2: Geographical, Descriptive, and Historical
The chapters have been compiled by various officers in the Sudan Administration; but the main work of editing and revision has fallen on lieut.-colonel Count Gleichen (the Editor), who, from the somewhat indiscriminate mass of. Reports, documents and books at his disposal, has evolved a compendium which cannot fail to be of great use and value to the officers and officials of the Sudan Government. I even venture to hope that such of the general public as may be interested in this vast country, its history, and its future, will find in the following pages a useful work of reference until a more complete and comprehensive work is forthcoming.
