Ten Months in the Field with the Boers
Produced by Al Haines
"Ten Months in the Field with the Boers" by Anonymous is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences and perspectives of an ex-lieutenant who served with General de Villebois-Mareuil during the Second Boer War. Likely exploring themes of military life, comradeship, and the complex socio-political landscape of South Africa during war, it offers insights into both the battlefield and the Boer community. At the start of the narrative, the author describes the journey to the Transvaal, detailing their departure from Paris and the challenges faced while boarding a train to Marseilles. The opening segment sets the stage for the author's transition from civilian life to soldiering, highlighting encounters with fellow passengers, preparations for the campaign, and initial travels aboard the ship "Natal". This leads to a discussion on the historical context of the Boer War, outlining the tensions between the Boers and the British Empire, and foreshadowing the complex events to come in the author's military engagement.
