Goodbye Dolly Gray: The Story of the Boer War by Rayne Kruger. Published by New English Library First Nel Mentor Edition, 1967. Softcover, Used, Good condition. 512 pp. (Tanned Pages)

Rayner Kruger brilliantly describes the background, the arms and armies, the campaigns and personalities of the war in which soldiers from across the British Empire marched to a succession of brave defeats at hands of sharpshooting farmers. These were calamitous blows, struck not only at an immense British Army but - as the old century passed into the new - at Victorian prestige, assumptions and complacency.
