Hello everyone,
Happy New Year 2017 to all.
Just purchased in Franschhoek, Cape Province, 4 volumes out of six;......"South Africa and the Transvaal war" by Louis Creswicke.
Regrettably volume 5 & 6 are missing from the complete set. Some very interesting info relating to the various battles and skirmishes,
I found the sequences of events confusing, because the author relates events on the various fronts within the same chapter.
Can anyone suggest where I may obtain vol 5 and vol 6 of this set of books?
Thanks
Evyn
