From 1899 to 1902 South Africa was convulsed by the conflict between one of the world's greatest powers - Britain - and the tenacious fighting force of two small Afrikaner republics, the ZAR (Transvaal) and the Orange Free State. Faced with the threat of losing their independence, the Boers rallied with a single-minded determination which gained them great sympathy in Europe and the US.
This book outlines the course of the war, through the formal first stages, to the guerilla struggle of the 'bitter enders'. Finally it focuses on individual aspects of the war that are often overlooked in a more general approach
