Summary "Fer et feu au Soudan" by Freiherr von Rudolf Carl Slatin is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the events surrounding the Mahdist War and the conflicts in Sudan during a turbulent period of colonial military campaigns and internal revolts. The narrative offers perspectives on key figures such as the Mahdi, as well as insights into the complexities of tribal alliances and the impact of European colonialism on the region. The opening of the book sets the stage for the siege of Khartoum and the rise of the Mahdist forces, introducing the significant characters and events that shaped this historical conflict. It details the arrival of Gordon Pasha, the proclamation made by the Mahdi, and the subsequent military skirmishes, emphasizing the growing unrest within Sudan and the challenges faced by both the Egyptian government and the local tribes. The narrative provides a vivid portrayal of the social dynamics and tensions during this critical time, alongside an exploration of Slatin's own experiences and captivity during the upheaval.
