Dutch text.  (SABIB 3, p. 112)  "He completed the manuscript of Het insluiten van de Boeren-republieken in 1914 but owing to the war this work was only published in 1919.  It was also brought out in English and described the history of the relations between the Transvaal Republic and Britain up to 1895. ... His De eerste annexatie van de Transvaal and Het insluiten van de Boeren-republieken are brilliant works which, although they present matters from one side only, cannot easily be refuted." - DSAB III, p. 519
