Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Lord Roberts and the War in South Africa. The Anglo-Boar War of 1899-1902 was one of the most important conflicts of the Victorian era and, siginificantly, not only spanned the end of Queen Victoria's long reign and the beginnin…g of that of King Edward VII, but also the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. After General Sir Redvers Buller's 'Black Week' defeats in December 1899, Lord Roberts was sent to South Africa to take over as Commander-in-Chief. Thousands of documents relating to Robert's direction of the Anglo-Boar War survive. The documents selected for this volume cover all aspects of his conduct of the war, including strategic planning, tactical intentions, logistical problems, and his views of senior officers. In this publication, the Army Records Society's Anglo-Boar Centennial Commemoration Volume, 111 mostly hitherto unpublished letters written by or to Roberts, and a number of relevant documents, have been reproduced in full. They include correspondence between Roberts and Queen Victoria, Lord Lansdowne, Lord Kitchener and Ian Hamilton. Frontispiece. 368 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Lord Kitchener and the War in South Africa. 1899-1902. When Lord Roberts was sent to South Africa at the end of 1899 to take over as Commander-in-Chief of the British forces in the region, it was decided that Lord Kitchener had…to go along as his Chief of Staff. These two renowned British soldiers had radically different personalities, and Kitchener - fresh from his successes in the Sudan - was reputed to be 'difficult', but they did not clash; as a matter of fact their abilities complemented each other to a remarkable degree. At midnight on 28-29 November 1900 Roberts handed over the command in South Africa to Kitchener, convinced that only some 'police work' still remained to be done. However, within a fortnight, the war escalated geographically as well as in intensity, and the new Commander-in-Chief had to ask for more troops. In this new book, 115 mostly unpublished letters written by or to Kitchener, and a number of other relevant documents, have been reproduced in full. They include correspondence between Kitchener and Queen Victoria, Lord Roberts and Mr. St John Brodrick. Frontispiece. 374 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
