The Anglo-Boer War was a three-year-long conflict that occurred between 1899 and 1902. It was fought between the British Empire and the two Boer states, the South African Republic and the Orange Free State. The war was marked by numerous military battles, guerrilla warfare, and civilian atrocities. Johannes Meintjes, a South African historian and artist, has documented this significant event in his book "The Anglo-Boer War - 1899-1902 - A Pictorial History". The unique feature of the book is that it uses Meintjes' artwork and illustrations, which he created during his research on the subject. The stunning pictorial biography shows the horrors of the war and its impact on the people involved. Overall, the book offers an emotional and vivid portrayal of the war and is an excellent resource for those interested in South African history. |
