Auckland: Auckland University Press, Date: 2003. 1st Edition . Soft cover. As New. This copy feels like new. War has been an unforgettable, powerful experience for many New Zealanders, and a defining element in the evolution of New Zealand as a nation. The South African War - the "Boer War" of 1899-1902 - was New Zealand's first overseas war, in which more than 6,000 people fought and 230 lost their lives. This collection of essays by leading historians presents various perspectives on New Zealand's involvement in this historical event. Opposition to the war, women and Maori in the war, the Australian perspective, and the Montreal Flag Riot of 1900 are all subjtects covered. Several distinguished overseas historians, inluding Tom Pakenham and Carman Miller, set the New Zealand effort in a wider imperial framework. 2003.

Furtyher contingents were quickly raised from the many volunteers who had come forward from all parts of the country. More than 6000 men would evenually serve in South Africa and fought on the veldt, and 230 of them lost their lives, most of them were mounted infantry. So too would a limited number of women as nurses and schoolteachers. Despite the strident jingoism that characterised the early stages of New Zealand's participation in the struggle against the Boers, not everybody supported the decision to send troops to South Africa. Some opposed it out of pacifist conviction, others because of doubts about the justice of the British cause, others again because of longstanding grevances against the British Empire unrelated to the war. Aspects of New Zealand's experience in the South African War and some consideration of the wider imperial context are explored in thirteen authoritative essay ...
