Additional Information
Neil Orpens The Cape Town Highlanders 18851970 is a meticulously researched regimental history that captures both the military exploits and civic contributions of one of South Africas most storied volunteer units. Written with Orpens characteristic clarity and attention to detail, the book traces the regiments evolution from its founding through decades of service in conflicts such as the Anglo-Boer War and World Wars, while also situating its story within the broader growth of Cape Town and the Republic. Richly illustrated with photographs, maps, and appendices, it offers not only a chronicle of battles and campaigns but also a portrait of dedication, tradition, and community spirit.
