On the 11th October 1899, the Transvaal and Orange Free State went to war with Great Britain.
Captain St Leger was a keen observer and his written anecdotes of the various actions in which he took part make fascinating reading.
More importantly, however, was his artistic talent which he put to great use in the production of many paintings during the march and the prints of which, in both colour and black and white illustrate this most beautiful classic on the Boer War.
