Boer War - A Bitter and Bloody Clash


Boer War - A Bitter and Bloody Clash

When Britain went to war against the Boers in October 1899, the British public expected the fighting to be over by Christmas. As it turned out, the Boer War, in Kiplings famous phrase, gave the British no end of a lesson. Using accounts of the soldiers who fought in this bitter and bloody clash of arms and remarkable contemporary photographs, this programme tells the story of Britains last great Imperial war.

Pinned Down (Highlanders Engage Boers) by John Farquharson		In 1895, Leander Starr Jameson assembled a private army outside the Transvaal with the aim of invading and overthrowing the Boer government. The idea had been to encourage civil unrest among foreign workers (Uitlanders), and use the outbreak of open revolt as an excuse to invade and take over the territory. But Jameson grew impatient and so launched the Jameson Raid on 29th December 1895, and managed to push within twenty miles of Johannesburg before superior Boer forces compelled him and his men to surrender at Doornkop on the 2nd of Janaury 1896.

Jameson's Last Stand, Battle of Doornkop 2nd January 1896 by Richard Caton Woodville.
