Excerpt from Coomassie and Magdala: The Story of Two British Campaigns in Africa Before proceeding to Abyssinia as a Special Correspondent of the 'new York Herald, ' I had been employed for American journals - though very young - in the same capacity, and wit nessed several stirring scenes in our Civil War.
