Winston Churchill "The River War

Thanks for the referral and the source! I had been looking for a Library Kindle version. The site will also be valuable. I suggest you post it to this thread. Subject 57339

I suspect the book was an inspiration for "La Vita Lampada," by Sir Henry Newbolt.



The sand of the desert is sodden red,—
Red with the wreck of a square that broke;—
The Gatling's jammed and the Colonel dead,
And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
The river of death has brimmed his banks,
And England's far, and Honour a name,
But the voice of a schoolboy rallies the ranks:
"Play up! play up! and play the game!"
