商品簡介
Fourteen contributions from Omissi (history, U. of Hull, UK), Thompson (history, U. of Leeds, UK) and other scholars discuss the impact of the South African War (a.k.a. the Transvaal War) on South Africans, the British, and the world. They examine social dislocation during and immediately after the conflict as well as the war's enduring effects on Afrikaner consciousness. Topics include, for example, postwar reconstruction, the Victorian and Edwardian British peace movement, and Canadians who participated in the conflict. Annotation c.
