His gripping account provides a vivid illustration of the richly varied manner in how the Union's people understood the war, experienced its pressures, responded to its opportunities, and dealt with its burdens. The consequences of the country's entry into war were often fraught and far-reaching, including the shock of a domestic Afrikaner rebellion, the swallowing of German South West Africa, decisive economic change, and wartime habits of violence which lingered on after 1918.
Thoughtful, lively and witty, this is an evocative portrait of South African society in its own world of war.
