COMPLETE 1905 REFERENCE EPUB · 82 ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS + MAPS

Prepared by officers of the Sudan Government and edited by Lord Edward Gleichen, Volume I is a remarkably detailed historical portrait of Sudan in 1905. It surveys the Nile regions, Khartoum, Darfur, Kordofan, Bahr el Ghazal, Equatoria and the eastern provinces, then adds chapters on history, treaties, the Sudd, wildlife, antiquities, ethnology, tribes, boundaries, bibliography and cartography.

This Nile Book Store edition includes:
the complete geographical, descriptive, and historical text; all appendices and the index; eighty-two genuine period photographs and illustrations; the original survey map and large general map; linked navigation; reflowable typography; and a bright new Volume I cover.

Illustration preview: The gallery presents genuine images and maps from the 1905 source edition—not newly invented historical material.

Historical context: This official colonial-era compendium contains outdated classifications and descriptions of Sudanese peoples, cultures, government, race, and religion. It is presented unabridged as a primary historical source, not as a modern account.
