The British policy of scorched earth and concentration camps during the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902 led to bitter memories and trauma that still haunt South Africa. The suffering in the concentration camps was used with great effect by political leaders in the 20th century to further Afrikaner nationalism.
Scorched Earth outlines the background to these camps and give a clear picture of life in the camps, authenticated by historical documents. Many of the photographs have not previously been published.
