  Third edition published by Methuen in 1901. Contents clean, binding tight. With twenty-three illustrations and a plan. 318pp + 37pp (adverts).   'The author states in the Preface that he has written truthful and without bias; but it would seem that he was seriously misinformed as to the strength of the Republics, which he puts down at from 25,000 to 30,000 men, a number at variance, apparently, with established facts, seeing that, reckoning prisoners of war, surrendered Boers in prison camps, surrenders after the declaration of peace, and a moderate estimate of deaths during hostilities, there could not have been far short of between three of four times that number in the field. He appears to have been somewhat influenced by the irreconcilables of the Republican and Afrikander parties, and is perhaps the only writer who takes note of "the courteous Boer official" at the border at Koomatiport, and "the hearty welcome afforded to the volunteers from foreign countries, who proffered their assistance to the Republics." Villebois, Sternberg, Alice Bron and others do not seem so positive on this point. Much stress is laid on the lack of discipline among the Boers: and it is stated that, owing to the fact that "family influences, party affiliations, and religion had a strong bearing on the election of the commandants, the best men were not always chosen as leaders." Many examples are given of occasions when the Krijgsraad overruled the advice of the Generals, whilst at other times the commandants refused to obey the instructions of the Krijgsraad, often to the great detriment of military operations. Reference is made to the systematic manner in which the Republicans were prepared for the struggle, and it is said that they possessed plans on which "was a representation of every foot of ground in the Transvaal, Free State, Natal, and Cape Colony," but the author asserts that although Steyn, Reitz, and the Dutch of the Cape Colony may have had visions of Dutch supremacy in South Africa, Kruger did not make war to gain it.' - Mendelssohn Vol.1.  

I have a passion for working with words and turning writing nightmares into easy to read understandable articles. While managing the publicity and media relations at a large corporation for many years, I discovered the great need for cutting through confused literature and turning messages into clear, correct and attractive content. This need encouraged me to use my talent and offer a service that finds the right tone and words to make you look good. Your image is important, you need to get your message right the first time, let me help you! From different angles, I am comfortable working on various subjects. I specialise in editing, writing, re-writing and proof-reading media releases, booklets, biographies, letters, newsletter, reports and stories about people, programmes, projects and events. I thrive on populating social networks with relevant images and content. I have excellent relationships with print, digital, radio and television media. I managed the publicity for international award-winning programmes; Shift, Skeem Saam, iSpani, 90 Plein Street, Each One Teach One, One Day Leader, Raise Your Hand, It’s for Life, Khululeka, Lucky, Soul Buddyz, Takalani Sesame, Take 5, Tsha Tsha, Yizo Yizo and many others.
