  • Account and Medal Roll Update 1 David Biggins
    Talana Account and Medal Roll Update 1 By David Biggins 1 Introduction to Update 1 In compiling the Talana book, more information was researched than could be included and this update is comprised of this information and also some recent discoveries of medals with the Talana clasp that have appeared on the market. The intention is to produce regular updates to this book and the other Boer War titles. Within this update can be found the dispatches and evidence given to the Royal Commission by General White and the diary of Governor Hely-Hutchinson. Several eyewitness accounts are also included that give perspectives of the battle itself, the view from Pietermaritzburg and life afterwards. Two accounts by the Town Guard are included and also examples of poetry that was written to commemorate the battle. There is a roll of bronze medals earned by Indian recipients and a short section on the postal commemoration of the battle of Talana. I hope you find the update interesting.

    Book Reviews and Notices THE PLOUGHSHARE OF WAR: The Origins of the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 By RICHARD COPE Pieternmritzburg, University of Natal Press, 1999. 282pp. iIIus. R95 Dr Cope points out in his preface that although the causes of the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879 have been considered in numerous chapters and parts of chapters in previous publications. this is the first book on the subject. Does this then mean that something new has been brought to the interpretation of the subject? The answer lies in the exhaustive scope of his 30-year research, and the skill with which the background events have been woven together to provide the setting which made it possible for Sir Bartle Frere to force a war on a reluctant Zulu King, a reluctant British Cabinet and a reluctant Colony of Natal. As Norman Etherington, one of the examiners of Cope's doctorate on which this book is based, has written, it is too easy to blame Frere for causing the war, and as a consequence, to overlook the deeper causes. Ploughshare does not do this. A great deal of care has been taken in the planning of the book. The preface and introduction are essential reading, concisely providing the reader with a template on which the ensuing chapters are structured. The section on the historiography is important. In examining Colin Webb's proposition that there have been three types of explanation for the origins of the war, many of the themes which are to be considered in detail later in the book, are introduced.

McCracken University of KwaZulu-Natal Abstract This paper looks at the fate of an Anglo-Irish officer in the British army during the Anglo- Boer War (1899-1902). Having noted the extent to which the Irish were represented in the British army, the paper tracks the career of Major-General Sir John Ardagh, director of British Military Intelligence during the greatest of Britain’s imperial wars. The paper examines the way in which the British establishment used Ardagh as a scapegoat for the early reverses in the war, and how the later disclosure of evidence vindicated Ardagh, but effectively ended his career. Keywords: Irish soldiers, Military Intelligence, Anglo-Boer War. Résumé Cet article interroge le sort d’un officier anglo-irlandais dans l’armée britannique lors de la guerre anglo-boer (1899-1902).

Too long Have sloth and doubt and treason bidden us be What Cromwell's England was not, when the sea To him bore witness, given of Blake, how strong She stood, a commonweal that brooked no wrong From foes less vile than men like wolves set free. Whose war is waged where none may fight or flee With women and with weanlings. Speech and song Lack utterance now for loathing. Scarce we hear Foul tongues, that blacken Cod's dishonoured name With prayers turned curses and with praise found shame.

Strike, England, and strike home." —Algernon Charles Swinburne. the face of the insolent Ultimatum which had been addressed to Great Britain by the South African Republic, the nation INclosed its ranks and relegated party controversy to a more appropriate season. The British people were temporarily in accord. A wave of indignation surged over the country, and united men of different shades of politics and of varying religious creeds, making them forget their private feuds, and remember only the paramount fact that they were sons of the Empire. There were some, it is true, who remained afar off—a few exceptions to prove the rule of unanimity, beings with souls so dead that never to them- selves had said, " This is my own, my native land," and who yet looked upon the Boer as an object of commiseration.

  • The City of London Imperial Volunteers [ C
    THE CITY OF LONDON IMPERIAL VOLUNTEERS [ C. I. V. ] Read by Deputy John Holland, C.B.E., J.P., D.L. 29 November 1999 The first Anglo-Boer War or South African War occurred in 1880-81 when the Afrikaners [Farmers] of Transvaal under Paul[us] Kruger [1825-1904] rebelled against British rule. After a massive defeat of the British Garrison at Majuba Hill, the Transvaal regained its independence and acquired self government under the British Crown by the Pretoria Convention, which left Britain in control of foreign relations and with the power to veto legislation relating to Africans. Paul Kruger was President of the South African Republic [Transvaal] from 1883-1902. On 12th October 1899, following the expiry of time in a Boer ultimatum calling for the withdrawal of British troops, the second Boer War began. The Afrikaners of the South African Republic and the Orange Free State invaded British territory with shots fired at Kraaipan and prepared to lay siege to Ladysmith [on the railway line to Durban and the principal British military depot in Natal and headquarters of the 12,000 strong British Force in South Africa, commanded by Sir George White], Mafeking in the north west and Kimberley in the south west, both in Cape Colony. In the first two weeks three battles were fought: Talana Hill on the 20th October [at which Major-General Sir William Penn Symons was killed]; Elandslaagte on the 21st; and Lombard’s Kop on the 30th. After this General Redvers Buller V.C. took over command. Though his strategy was sound, in execution he was completely out of his depth.

Signature: Date: 1 Abstract This thesis examines the influence of the Boer War 1899 – 1902 upon tactics and training in the regular British Army 1902 – 1914. The work argues that several key lessons drawn from South Africa became the tactical cornerstones for infantry, artillery and cavalry throughout the pre-First World War period and shaped the performance of the B.E.F. during the early battles of 1914. The experience of combat against well armed opposition in the Boer War prompted the British Army to develop improved tactics in each of the three major service arms.
