Battle of Omdurman, September 2, 1898.  The climactic battle of the Mahdist wars, a mixed force of 25,000 British, Sudanese and Egyptian troops under the command of Herbert Kitchener defeated a much larger force of Dervishes commanded by Abdullah al-Tasshi. Most of the Dervish forces were concealed at the start of the battle, and Kitchener started to move without knowing a substantial force was still on his flank.  Quick action by Hector MacDonald's Sudanese brigade saved the day. India, Egypt, War, Art, Battle Of Omdurman, Egyptian
