In the record of recent British history there is no more captivating page for boys than the story of the Nile campaign, and the attempt to rescue General Gordon. For, in the difficulties which the expedition encountered, and in the perils which it overpassed, are found all the excitement of romance, as well as the fascination which belongs to real events. “The Dash for Khartoum is your ideal boys’ book.”—_Tablet_. “It is literally true that the narrative never flags a moment.”—_Academy_. “The Dash for Khartoum will be appreciated even by those who don’t ordinarily care a dash for anything.”—_Punch_. —With Wolfe in Canada: or, The Winning of a Continent.
