In the present volume Mr. Neufeld has attempted to give a
picture of the exciting times during the Rebellion of Arabi
Pasha. Starting from his University, the hero, George
Helmar, goes out into the world to make a place in it for
himself. From the commencement he meets with adventures:
along the Danube and in Constantinople. He arrives in
Alexandria just as Arabi's antagonism towards the Khedive
has ripened into open revolt. He ultimately reaches
Alexandria just after the bombardment, and gets engaged as
interpreter to the British forces. He is taken prisoner
whilst out on patrol, escapes, is recaptured, and finally
escapes again in time to reach Tel-el-Kebir with important
news which saves Cairo from destruction. The book is full of
exciting and thrilling incidents and situations, many of
which have been experienced by Mr. Neufeld himself.
