The Boer War in Colour contains many iconic photos from the war, as well as several previously unpublished images.

Excellent book almost makes the transformed into a new age. Massive time must have been taken to transform photos using today’s technology. Will definitely help the younger generation relate to this war and the struggle against a mighty military force

This was an impulse buy that impressed me no end when I received it. First of all, the price at Loot was much less than anywhere else I looked. Initially I felt it was too much of a "coffee table" type book, but there is so much information to be seen and gleaned from the enhanced and beautifully coloured photographs that it reads more like a detective novel! I love this book.
