Kill the Boer: HISTORICAL NOVEL OF THE ANGLO BOER WAR

By Franz Conradie

"Seldom in the annals of human conflict, did so many, suffer so much, because of so few..." My rendering of Sir William Churchill's famous words, some 40 years later, to be applicable to the Anglo Boer war...The Few: Joseph Chamberlain, Alfred Milner, Cecil Rhodes, and others such as Julius Wernher, Alfred Beit, Percy Fitzpatrick, Frederick Roberts and Herbert Kitchener.The Many ('tally' of the 'few'):* Some 24 000 British and Colonials who died in battle, were wounded or perished from disease.* About 15 000 Boers who were killed in action, were wounded or died in prisoner of war camps.* More than 26 000 Boer children, women and elderly people who died in tragic circumstances in concentration camps.* More than 20 000 blacks and coloreds who died in combat or in concentration camps.To the descendants of these people and the 50 000 burghers and 450 000 British and Colonial troops; who all fought to the best of their ability, I dedicate this book.
