Today the word “commando” conjures a picture of daring special forces raids, but originally it was the Boer word for a mobile column of fighting men.

This is the account of one such fighting man.

Aged just seventeen Deneys Reitz, son of the ex-President of the Orange Free State and then State Secretary of the South African Republic, took up his rifle and joined the Boer Army.

It was 1899, and tensions between Great Britain and the Transvaal Republic and Orange Free State had reached boiling point.

From their initial strikes into Natal to the surge of British troops and the transition to bloody guerrilla wa

Title: Great firsthand account

Review: Excellent description of the Second Boer War from the perspective of a Boer guerilla. Firsthand accounts are always best for the immersive effect and this work is no exception. Excellent read!

Review: This text is in the public domain, so you can search for it and download digital copies for free without violating copyright, just not in this copyrighted edition. Author Deneys Reitz was still in his teens during the Second Boer War (1899-1902). He came from a wealthy connected family -- his father was president of the Orange Free State during the war -- but still he and his brothers volunteered to fight and at least Deneys suffered through to the bitter end. In this book we encounter famous Boer leaders like Jan Smuts (who writes the Introduction), Louis Botha, Christiaan de Wet, Koos de la Rey with his warrior-mystic Nicolaas Van Rensburg, Piet Joubert, Manie Moritz, and the "incredibly ugly" Paul Kruger. The author was present at many major battles, including Ladysmith, Spion Kop, and Elands River where the famous British 17th Lancers were badly defeated. He recounts, for example, use of the Creusot 6 inch "Long Tom" artillery, which his older brother helped crew; the challenges of the guerilla campaign waged in the final year or so of the war, during which the author was repeatedly wounded and had several horses shot out from under him; and the British policies of scorched earth, concentration camps, and executing any Boer captured wearing British khaki, even though wearing it was necessary as the Boers' clothes literally disintegrated on their backs from months of surviving in the veldt and on the bergs. The narrative really gives a sense of the grueling life of a Boer commando, its constant reliance on bushcraft for survival, and how it changed throughout the full course of the war. Unfortunately, it's also sprinkled with the racism typically displayed by Boer South Africans towards the indigenous peoples of the region, using language that today is outlawed in South Africa. But if the author is to be believed, the Boers upheld an ethic about the treatment of civilians and POWs that was not typical of the 20th Century. After the war, the author was rendered to Madagascar for several years before finally returning to his homeland and becoming a successful lawyer. Overall it's an incredible story of survival against the odds. If you enjoy this book, you should also check out the author's book, Trekking On: A Boer Journal of World War One, telling his story as a British colonial infantry officer in Africa and Europe.

Review: Considering the author's first language was Dutch and he passed away in 1944, I found this book easy to read and enjoy. Deneys Reitz was a well-educated man who fought in the Boer War. Thankfully, he wrote this story, which is true-life documentation of his experiences, to enlighten future generations. His descriptions of life and war are simple, yet vivid. The English, keen to extend the British colonies, arrived in South Africa long after the Dutch had settled and established farms. The British began their quest to claim land and gold burning and destroying farms in their wake. A lengthy war ensued during which many battles were fought. Dutch women and children were placed into concentration camps by their British captors in which over 25 000 of them died. Deneys Reitz gives accounts of the battles in which he fought. It's nail-biting stuff that makes 007 appear as a comparative comfy-cat. The Boers were dreadfully outnumbered against the British who procured a non-stop conveyor belt of troops sourced from the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The Boers had little food, clothing and ammunition and horses, but they were surprisingly resourceful and tough in their combat. This book depicts numerous battle scenes as this particular group of men travelled from North to South eventually coming under the leadership of General Smuts. The battle scenes are horrific but sufficiently sanitised to make for comfortable reading. Imagine being starving and cold while riding through the night to escape the enemy over the treacherous ground with icy temperatures that freeze the hessian sack (your clothing) on your body. The following morning you discover 30 horses and 14 men have possibly died but you are still alive and out in front; now a new threat lies ahead -- you must keep moving. The story culminates in the final meeting between Lord Kitchener, Botha and Smuts, where a harsh and mean-spirited agreement is signed with reluctance on the Boers' side but was necessary for their survival.
