Description
Using material gathered over twenty years from a wide variety of sources, Maugham has written a marvelous novel in the form of Gordon of Khartoum's own missing last journal. He gives a stark, but moving, picture of the siege of Khartoum and of the last tortured months of Gordon's life, and reveals a man as unsure of his destiny as he was unsure of his sexuality.; Experience the pleasure of reading and appreciating this actual printed item.
