War Drums is a historical novel written by Louis Edward Scharkie and published in 1899. The story takes place during the late 1800s in Africa, where the British Empire is expanding its territory and influence. The protagonist of the story is a young British officer named Captain George Braddock, who is sent to Africa to serve in the British army. As Braddock arrives in Africa, he quickly becomes embroiled in the conflicts between the British and the various African tribes who are resisting their colonization. The novel explores the complexities of the relationships between the British and the African people, as well as the internal conflicts within the British army. Throughout the novel, Braddock must navigate the treacherous political landscape of colonial Africa while also dealing with personal struggles and romantic entanglements. As the tensions between the British and the African tribes escalate, Braddock finds himself at the center of a violent conflict that threatens to tear apart the fragile peace in the region. War Drums is a thrilling and thought-provoking novel that explores the themes of imperialism, cultural clash, and the human cost of war. Scharkie's vivid descriptions of the African landscape and the complex characters he creates make this novel a must-read for anyone interested in historical fiction and the history of colonial Africa.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
