- This is a very good copy of Constable's first Colonial edition
The author was perhaps the most brilliant of the Boer generals; he wrote the book on the sea passage to London and had it published in the same year, declaring, however, that he was responsible only for his original Dutch manuscript, and not for the English or any other translation
