The War in South Africa Its Cause and Conduct

""The War in South Africa: Its Cause and Conduct"" is a non-fiction book written by Arthur Conan Doyle, the famous author of the Sherlock Holmes series. The book offers a comprehensive analysis of the Second Boer War, which took place between 1899 and 1902 in South Africa. Doyle provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the war, the military strategies employed by both sides, and the political and social implications of the conflict. Throughout the book, Doyle argues that the war was caused by a combination of factors, including British imperialism, economic interests, and the Boer desire for independence. He also examines the conduct of the war, including the use of concentration camps by the British, which resulted in the deaths of thousands of Boer women and children. Doyle's book is considered to be one of the most important historical accounts of the Second Boer War. It offers a unique perspective on the conflict, as Doyle was a British citizen who supported the war effort, but also had a deep respect for the Boer people and their culture. The book is well-researched and provides a balanced analysis of the war, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of South Africa or British imperialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
