THE GREAT BOER WAR.
BY A. CONAN DOYLE.
With Maps. Large post 8vo. 10s. 6d.
Spectator.—'The conditions under which Dr. Conan Doyle's animated and valuable record was written relieve it from the dangers of red-hot impressionism.... When to these opportunities are added that manly temper and command of forcible and picturesque language which have won him distinction in the field of fiction, it is not to be wondered at that the result should prove as engrossing as any of his novels.'
Queen.—'Whatever histories of the war in South Africa are written, Dr. Conan Doyle's "Great Boer War" must remain the history.... The book is marvellously exciting, admirably lucid, and scrupulously just.'
Westminster Gazette.—'Mr. Conan Doyle may be congratulated very heartily on having written, in the "Great Boer War," a book which will delight and interest a wide circle of readers. Nowhere will the reader obtain a truer or more graphic picture of the warfare of the kopje and the veldt, nor of the difficulties which our generals had to overcome. The book is also a marvel of conciseness.'
