Author - Captain C M Dixon
This work, first published in London in 1900 as 'The Leaguer of Ladysmith', was republished in reduced format to mark the centenary of the famous siege.
Three pages of textual descriptions to the eighteen colour illustrations following.
"In publishing the following sketches done in the idle hours during the siege, I beg to tender my sincerest apologies to all those who appear in them, and to assure them that they were done in a friendly spirit, and a souvenir of a somewhat trying four months spent together in a beleagured town, borne cheerfully by soldiers and civilians alike for the sake of the Empire." - author.
Small scar to back wrap, probably from an earlier price label.
