Narrative of the Expedition to Dongola and Sennaar

Narrative of the Expedition to Dongola and Sennaar, published in 1822 by George Bethune English, recounts his experiences as an officer during an expedition up the Nile River against Sennar. After resigning from the U.S. Marine Corps and converting to Islam, English joined Isma'il Pasha's forces, where he gained recognition for his role in the campaign. This work is notable for being one of the earliest American accounts of Egypt and the Sudan, providing insights into the region during the early 19th century.
