The Great Boer War (1899-1902) - more properly the Great Anglo-Boer War - was one of the last romantic wars, pitting a sturdy, stubborn pioneer people fighting to establish the independence of their tiny nation against the British Empire at its peak of power and self-confidence. It was fought in the barren vastness of the South African veldt, and it produced in almost equal measure extraordinary feats of personal heroism, unbelievable examples of folly and stupidity, and many incidents of humor and tragedy.
Byron Farwell traces the war’s origins, the slow mounting of the British efforts to overthrow the Afrikaners, the bungling and bickering of the British command, the remarkable series of bloody battles that almost consistently ended in victory for the Boers over the much more numerous British forces, political developments in London and Pretoria, the sieges of Ladysmith, Mafeking and Kimberley, the concentration camps into which Boer families were herded and the exhausting guerrilla warfare of the last few years when the Boer armies were finally driven from the field.
This audiobook is a definitive history of a dramatic conflict by a master story teller and historian. Byron Farwell served as an officer in the North African and Italian campaigns in World War II and also in the Korean War. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature in 1964, and is the author of Queen Victoria’s Little Wars.

The site’s resident imperial fascists won’t like any mention of British concentration camps. It’s always the fault of the camps’ victims, apparently.
Thx, Guest.

Thx, Guest.
Just how many indigenes of N. America still reside in the hellholes created long prior to the Boer War?

Enter stage far right: the honeyed fascist imperial defender. History isn’t their strong point - but then nothin’ is. Inconvenient when your target isn’t actually American, isn’t it?!

Still fighting the good fight, caesar.

New rash of fash banging on about the glorious genocides of empires past, Tiger. Sun never set, and all that sloblox. The usual suspects, you could say. It’s just awkward when their prey turns out not to be American. It seems to be their only “debating” move. “But - but, you must be American! All of my 1980s attack material is about America!”
