I don't know if this is the correct platform to introduce myself but hopefully it is.

My interest in the Boer War is , I would think the same an any Afrikaner in South Africa, having Grandparents who were involved. Two Grandmothers who were in the Camps, only one survived. A great Aunt who, as a child survived..

I have read several books on the period and would hope to do more research.
