"Provinces of the Equator" offers a fascinating glimpse into the administration of the Equatorial Provinces in the late 19th century, as seen through the letters and reports summarized by the General Staff of the Egyptian Army. This compilation provides insights into the work of Governor-General Charles George Gordon (better known as General Gordon or Gordon Pasha), who played a crucial role in the region during a period of significant colonial activity.
The text presents a detailed overview of the challenges and initiatives undertaken in governing this vast territory, shedding light on the political, social, and economic dynamics at play. It is a valuable resource for historians and researchers interested in the history of colonial Africa, Egyptian administration in the Sudan, and the life and work of one of Britain's most iconic and controversial military figures. This volume offers a unique perspective on the complexities of colonial governance and the enduring impact of these historical events.
