The War In South Africa: Its Cause And Conduct is a non-fiction book written by Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes. The book was published in 1902 and provides a detailed account of the Second Boer War, fought between the British Empire and the two Boer states, the South African Republic and the Orange Free State. Doyle was a strong supporter of the British Empire and believed in the righteousness of the war. In this book, he argues that the war was necessary to protect British interests in South Africa and to ensure the safety of British citizens living there. He goes on to describe the causes of the war, including the discovery of gold and diamonds in the region, and the tensions that arose between the British and the Boers over issues such as voting rights and land ownership.Throughout the book, Doyle provides a detailed account of the major battles and campaigns of the war, as well as the strategies and tactics used by both sides. He also discusses the role of key figures such as General Buller, General Roberts, and Lord Kitchener.The War In South Africa: Its Cause And Conduct is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the political and military climate of the time. It is also a reflection of Doyle's own beliefs and values, as well as his passion for history and military strategy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
