A Boer War classic. De Wet wrote this book whilst on board ship en route to Europe in order to solicit funds for the reconstruction of the two Boer Republics. His Boer colleagues encouraged him, insisting that he write the book. After its completion, it is said that De Wet indicated that he would rather face a "Regiment of Tommies" on his own than write another book!
