Diamond Fields N12 Battlefields Route 1899-1902 Northern Cape The Anglo-Boer War 1899-1902 Battlefield Route guide Everyone's War Conventionally seen as a "White man's war" fought between Boers and the British, the three bloody, costly years of conflict not only involved all sectors of South Africa's population but attracted foreign volunteers from around the world. It started conventionally, pitting the two small Boer Republics against Britain, backed by her colonies of Natal and the Cape. Both sides anticipated victory within weeks, but battle succeeded battle and casualty lists lengthened. Colonial troops from Canada, Australia and New Zealand (for their first combat experience outside their own countries) reinforced the British Divisions. Republican sympathy brought the Boers medical assistance and fighting volunteers from America, Ireland, Germany, Italy, France and the Scandinavian countries . Serving with both forces were the South African blacks and coloureds, some 100 000 with the British Army and at least 10 000 with the Boers. Contrary to popular belief many fought armed, particularly by the British later in the war or as official Town Guards. The majority, however, served in a support capacity as essential transport drivers, guides, scouts, spies, labourers or servants. When guerilla-style warfare replaced conventional battles the rural populations became inevitable victims. A scorched-earth policy, introduced by Britain to contain the mobility of the commandos, resulted in destruction of homes, animals and crops, compounding the hardships caused by loss of jobs, drought, closure of mines, or the absence of men.

The Boer War South Africa, 1899-1902 T he year is 1899. Queen Victoria has recently celebrated her Diamond Jubilee. The British Empire is at its zenith in power and prestige. But the High Commissioner of Cape Colony in South Africa, Alfred Milner, wants more. He wants to gain for the Empire the economic power of the gold mines in the Dutch Boer republics of the Transvaal and the Orange Free State. He also wants to create a Cape-to-Cairo confederation of British colonies to dominate the African continent. And he wants to rule over it. T o do this, Milner precipitates a war with the Boers. As always, over-confident generals and politicians predict the war will be over 'by Christmas'. And again, as frequently happened with the British in their colonial wars, they only win one battle - the last one. But they will have to wait two and a half years for that. Until then, disaster is piled on disaster, military careers are destroyed, 22,000 Tommy Atkins are laid to rest in 'some corner of a foreign field that is for ever England' , and the Empire muddles on in the heat and dust of the South African veldt.

Turks Home Archives Related Photos The Anglo-Boer war by Simone Pelizza The conflict that upset the South Africa at the beginning of the 20th century, furnishing a test bench for the modern weapons that would have been subsequently used in World War 1. Prelude As a result of the napoleonic wars, Great Britain had officially acquired the control of the Cape of Good Hope in 1814, although it already occupied it in concrete since 1806. This got further the Boers, the aboriginal farmers of Dutch language of the Colony of the Cape, from the influence of their own homeland (Holland), setting them directly under the British government; and it dramatically altered their way of life based on a rigid religious code of puritanical observance. Now, such rigid beliefs were totally threatened by a culture and an administration extraneous to them, brought by men that were considered as " invaders ". The contrasts already emerged in 1834, when Great Britain ordered the emancipation of all the slaves in every part of the empire, included South Africa . For the Boers, such provision was really unacceptable under the religious point of view: the rigid puritanical conceptions, in fact, had rooted in them the conviction to be infinitely superior to the ancient native tribes that originally lived in the lands occupied by them. To make incandescent the situation, there was the inadequate system of compensation of the economic losses fixed by the English government, which also tried to combine the abolitionist measure with the assimilation of the juridical status of blacks and white. Therefore, the Boer population was persuaded to look for a new country in the inside beyond the rivers Orange and Vaal, away from the interference of the British colonialism.

The South African Military History Society Die Suid-Afrikaanse Krygshistoriese Vereniging Military History Journal - Vol 10 No 3 (incorporating Museum Review) ANGLO-BOER WAR TOWN GUARD FORTS IN THE EASTERN CAPE, 1901-1902 By Richard Tomlinson During the author's travels in the Eastern Cape over the past six years, he came across the remains of several small stone fortifications erected by local Town Guards during the Second Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902). Believing this to be an aspect of our historic heritage which has not, to date, appeared in the pages of this journal, he felt that the existence of these interesting forts deserves to be recorded. The forts discussed below are those situated at Knysna and Jansenville, as well as two guarding the Upper Van Stadens Dam, which supplies water to Port Elizabeth. In the early stages of the war, military conflict centred around the Natal front in the Colenso and Ladysmith areas, and the Northern Cape/Orange Free State front, where the battles of Stormberg, the Modder River and Magersfontein opened the door to the relief of the besieged towns of Kimberley and Mafeking. The formal phase of the war ended when the British forces under Lord Roberts captured Pretoria on 5 June 1900. During these early months, the Eastern Cape featured only in a support function, Port Elizabeth and East London being utilized for the landing of troops, horses and equipment which were then transported by train to the front in the Northern Cape/Free State region.

The South African Military History Society Die Suid-Afrikaanse Krygshistoriese Vereniging Military History Journal - Vol 6 No 3 The Medical Aspect of the Anglo-Boer War, 1899-1902 Part ll by Professor J.C. de Villiers, MD FRCS BRITISH MILITARY ORGANIZATION On the British side, the magnitude of the entire military operation was underestimated from the outset so that the medical arrangements were totally inadequate. This gave rise to immense problems; practical, emotional and political. The R.A.M.C. (Royal Army Medical Corps) had only been established in 1898 and lacked efficiency, not having been tried in a major conflict. Conditions of service in the Corps and particularly the low salaries which it offered, were such that they failed to attract to a career in it the kind of person who might lend it status and find personal satisfaction therein. In an attempt to compensate for these defects, a large number of civilian surgeons were appointed as consultants to the military medical units for service in South Africa.(1) There was a tremendous emotional reaction in Great Britain, especially after 'Black Week' when it became obvious that the war in South Africa would not be over in a few weeks as was initially predicted. This serious military setback which Britain, the major power in the world, had suffered induced her population to close ranks and forced even the anti-war sympathisers to feel that the war had to be brought to a rapid and satisfactory conclusion. Many privately endowed hospitals, ambulances, ambulance trains and hospital ships were provided to assist in the war effort and individuals volunteered for the military medical and nursing service in large numbers.
