Deals with the German South West Africa campaign. Trew served on Botha's staff and thus offers an informed view of the campaign. He pays tribute to Botha's shrewd tactics, designed to minimise casualties- a trait that was ignored by other WWI generals. "These personal stories of General Louis Botha will, I hope, enable English people to learn what sort of man he was, better perhaps than a more formal history". Preface.
