Author Robert L. Wallace utilizes a deep archive of personal diaries, letters home, and frontline dispatches to deliver a raw, vivid perspective of combat on the veld and kopjes. From the legendary siege of Elands River and the relief of Kimberley to the controversial 'Breaker' Morant affair, the narrative spans the birth of the nation's military identity during the precise era of Australian Federation. Renowned for their elite capabilities as highly mobile mounted infantry and scouts, the experiences of these soldiers are woven expertly into the broader strategic tapestry of the war, making this out-of-print first edition a vital asset for any dedicated Anglo-Boer War historian.\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-epip=\"\" data-hveid=\"CAAIERAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-sfc-root=\"ep\" data-epip=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003eAuthor Profile: Robert L.
