As the cholera epidemic had passed away in Egypt, and it was considered quite safe to return there, my step-daughter and myself took passages by the British India line of steamers, and on the 14th of November, 1883, started from the Royal Albert Docks, in the Eldorado. I must say, she was not a good specimen of the line, for she was very dirty, and the food was very badly cooked.

A rare woman's firsthand account of Suakin and the eastern Sudan during the turbulent winter of 1883–84.

Ernestine Sartorius travelled from England to Egypt and onward to Suakin, where her husband served with Valentine Baker's expedition. Her narrative moves from shipboard observations and Cairo society to Red Sea travel, camp life, local markets, military uncertainty, and the realities of daily life at Suakin.

This Nile Book Store edition preserves the complete 1885 text and all eleven original illustrations supplied with the public-domain transcription. The spelling Soudan is retained from the original title. The book has been rebuilt as a clean, reflowable EPUB with clickable navigation for comfortable reading on phones, tablets, and e-readers.
