Download or read book OFF HIST OF THE WAR IN SOUTH A written by Major General Sir Frederick Maurice and published by Naval & Military Press. This book was released on 2016-10-24 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of several distinguished histories of the Boer War - including works by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Leopold Amery - this is the most detailed, exhaustive, and probably definitive. It is the official British history of the conflict, complete in four substantial volumes accompanied by four slimmer volumes of maps. Vol. One covers the run-up to war, with descriptions of the South African terrain and the condition of the British and Boer forces. After the arrival of Sir Redvers Buller to take command of British forces, it narrates the sorry story of 'Black Week' in December 1899 - the trio of defeats when three British columns were trounced at Magersfontein, Colenso and Stormberg. The first volume concludes with the arrival of 'Bobs' - Lord Roberts - to take over command from the hapless Buller and his re-organisation of the British army. Vol. Two opens with the Boer siege of Kimberley and its relief by British forces, followed by the British pursuit of the veteran Boer General Cronje and his defeat at Paardeberg. The campaign in the Orange Free State around its capital, Bloemfontein, follows. Then comes the sombre story of Spion Kop, a bloody British defeat. The volume concludes with an account of the siege and relief of Ladysmith. Vol Three concerns the beginning of the guerrilla phase of the war, with clearing operations in the Orange River and Transvaal against the legendary Boer guerrilla commander De Wet. There is also an account of the famous defence of Mafeking by Baden Powell, founder of the Scout movement, and of its relief which sent Britain's population into paroxysms of patriotic jubilation. Vol .Four is concerned with the final, most painful, phase of the war: the endgame. Under the command of Kitchener, and Generals later prominent in the Great War such as Plumer, French and Hamilton, the British waged a war of attrition to stamp out the final sparks of Boer resistance, using such 'scorched earth' methods as farm burning, blockhouse building and, most controversially of all, concentration camps. No serious student of the war can afford to be without these books.2004 Vol I xvii+i+526pp, Vol 2 xvi + 701pp, Vol 3 xiii + 609pp, Vol 4 xv + 767pp, 1 plate.

Download or read book Boer War written by Thomas Pakenham and published by Harper Perennial. This book was released on 1992-12-01 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Boers of South Africa responded to Britain's annexation of the gold-and-diamond-rich Transvaal region by declaring war on October 11, 1899. The English believed the fighting would be over by Christmas -- never dreaming they were on the brink of one of the longest, bloodiest, most costly and humiliating military campaigns in their history. Mammoth in scope and scholarship, as vivid, fast-moving and breathtakingly compelling as the finest fiction. Thomas Pakenham's The Boer War is the definitive account of this extraordinary conflict -- a war precipitated by greed and marked by almost inconcievable blundering and brutalities . . . and whose shattering repercussions can be felt to this very day.
