Summary
The Mahdi’s Uprising: An African Perspective on a Forgotten Islamic Revolution
The Mahdi of Sudan’s story is often told through a British lens, obscuring its true nature as a pivotal African event. This book shifts the focus, revealing the Mahdi’s uprising as the culmination of a series of 18th-century Islamic rebellions and wars with far-reaching consequences for North and East Africa.
