ABOUT THIS: The Battle of Tofrek was one of many actions undertaken by the British forces against the Mahdist forces in the Sudan. The objective had been to relieve General Gordon in Khartoum but by January 1885 that city had fallen to the Mahdi’s army and Gordon had been killed. The book “The Battle of Tofrek, fought near Suakin, March 22nd 1885” by William Galloway was written shortly after the battle. It appears that the writer’s intention was to correct several erroneous statements that appeared in both official and press reports of the battle.
