The Last Stand of Richard Corfield: Britain's War with the Mad Mullah
In August 1913, deep in the arid interior of British Somaliland, Captain Richard Corfield led a force of camel-mounted troopers into what would become one of the most dramatic—and overlooked—clashes of Britain’s colonial wars. Outnumbered nearly 30 to 1, Corfield and the Somaliland Camel Constabulary faced the full might of the Dervish forces led by the enigmatic and defiant Mohammed Abdullah Hassan—dubbed by the British as the “Mad Mullah.”
