Originally published in 1900, The Great Boer War is a nonfiction account of the Boer War. The book was published in sixteen editions during the time of the war, constantly updated with more accurate information and records of those killed, lending it an urgency akin to battlefield journalism. The Great Boer War is an excellent resource for historians and anyone wishing to know more about this often-neglected episode in British history. Scottish surgeon and political activist SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE (1859-1930) produced nonfiction and fiction works, sometimes controversial (The Great Boer War, 1900), sometimes fanciful (The Coming of the Fairies, 1922), and sometimes legendary (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892).
