(London: T. Fisher Unwin, 1900)

Crown 8vo; original red cloth blocked in black on spine and upper cover; pp. xiv + 224 + (vii). Cover rather mottled and bumped; moderate foxing; trace of fingering. Good. A volume in "The Overseas Library" series. (SABIB 3, p. 191; Mendelssohn I, p. 936) "'Mr. Garnett, the editor of the "Overseas Library," says in a "foreword," that "a war correspondent writing from Kimberley in 1900 remarked, 'We know nothing of the Boer. Those who have lived here longest with him in peace have deceived us the most about what sort of man he would prove in war.' " The work "renders faithfully the strong, harsh outlines of life on the veld as it presents itself to South African English eyes." ' - Mendelssohn. Very uncommon.
