About this title

Synopsis

A history of the little known First Boer War (1880-1881) between the Boers and the English which culminated in the disaster to British arms at the Battle of Majuba Hill. The war gained the independance of the Transvaal for the Boers and set the scene for the much bigger and more famous conflict of the Second Boer War (1899-1902).
