The Boere-oorlog

The author challenges many of the accepted views of historians. He exposes the crucial role of the two Rand millionaires in precipitating the war. He throws new light on the blunders of British generals and writes movingly of the plight of the 100,000 black Africans who served both armies. The narrative is based on first hand and largely unpublished sources.
