SIDE-LIGHTS ON THE MARCH.

Mendelssohn (Sidney) South African Bibliography Volume 1, page 956: ‘The author, an American war correspondent lays stress on the cordial good feeling he found which existed between the British Empire and the United States of America. After some initial difficulties he joined forces under Lord Roberts. The volume contains a graphic account of Roberts' march to Pretoria, written by a friendly critic, who like many other correspondents, seems to have considered the war to have ended after the occupation of Pretoria.’
