Product Description
The first shots of the Boer War were fired at Kraaipan on 12 October 1899. Winston Churchill, though he had left his regiment, the 4th Hussars, in the previous March, was eager as ever to be within the sound of guns and wasted no time in getting himself accredited to the Morning Post as war correspondent. He sailed from Southampton aboard the Dunottar Castle on 14 October and reached Cape Town on the 31st.
