The Last Dream of General Gordon: Before the Fall of Khartoum (1885) is a historical novel written by J. Ashton. The book is set in the late 19th century and tells the story of General Charles Gordon, a British military commander who was sent to Khartoum, Sudan to evacuate British citizens and protect the city from an impending attack by the Mahdi, a religious leader who was leading a rebellion against the British.The novel follows General Gordon as he struggles to maintain control of the city and protect its inhabitants from the Mahdi's forces. As the situation becomes more dire, General Gordon begins to have vivid dreams of an apocalyptic future in which Khartoum is destroyed and the Mahdi's forces conquer the region.The Last Dream of General Gordon is a gripping tale of heroism, sacrifice, and the struggle for survival in a time of war. Ashton's vivid descriptions of the battles and the people involved in them bring the story to life, and the novel provides a fascinating glimpse into the politics and military tactics of the era.Overall, The Last Dream of General Gordon is a must-read for anyone interested in history, military strategy, or the human experience in times of conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
