Contents:

Occupation and insurgency -- The failure of protection -- From neutrality to collaboration -- War against women -- In captivity -- White man's war -- The aftermath of war.

Summary: The South African War (1899-1902), also called the Boer War and Anglo-Boer War, began as a conventional conflict. It escalated into a savage irregular war fought between the two Boer republics and a British imperial force that adopted a scorched-earth policy and used concentration camps to break the will of Afrikaner patriots and Boer guerrillas. This work delves into the agonizing choices faced by Winburg district residents during the British occupation.
