Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Following Lieutenant Bertie Moeller's account from the frontlines, this diary takes us through the realities of the Second Boer War. Starting with his enlistment and training in the newly formed C.I.V. Mounted Infantry in 1899, Moeller provides a detailed account of his two years in the war. We follow Moeller and his fellow soldiers on their journey from Southampton to Cape Town, then to the frontlines under Lord Roberts, and through their battles at Bethlehem, Naauwpoort Nek, Golden Gate, and Cox Farm, amid a terrain suited for defense and severe heat. The author illustrates the hardships of living on half-rations, losing comrades, and the mental toll of war. Moeller demonstrates his bravery and leadership in battle, as his section engages with the enemy, in one instance leading to his rescue of a wounded trooper. This diary shows the personal experiences of those serving in the Boer War and contributes to our understanding of the conflict and its human cost.
