*G. A. HENTY*

*With Kitchener in the Soudan:*

A Tale of Atbara and Omdurman.

With 10 Illustrations by W. RAINEY, R.I., and 3 Maps.  6s.

In carrying out various special missions with which he is entrusted the
hero displays so much dash and enterprise that he soon attains an
exceptionally high rank for his age. In all the operations he takes a
distinguished part, and adventure follows so close on adventure that the
end of the story is reached all too soon.

    "Mr. Henty has collected a vast amount of information about the
    reconquest of the Soudan, and he succeeds in impressing it upon
    his reader's mind at the very time when he is interesting him
    most."--
