Reviews

[Lydia Willcock · Rating 5 out of 5]

This beautiful book surpassed even my high expectations for it. What I originally intended to keep as a reference book I ended up reading from cover to cover. An absolute treasure trove for all Boer War enthusiasts, really bringing the war to life and presenting all kinds of interesting details and facts. I can't wait for the second volume to release.
