About This Book

This volume chronicles the guerrilla phase of the 1901–1902 conflict in southern Africa, tracing operations from February 1901 to the end of hostilities and the development of peace negotiations. It provides a chronological account of field operations across the Transvaal, Orange River Colony, and Cape Colony, detailing sweeping movements, pursuits of raiders, and coordinated column operations. The work records compositions and strengths of forces, organizes material by campaign and commander, and is supplemented by maps, illustrations, and detailed unit lists to document troop dispositions and engagements.
