Miller focuses on the connection between Britain's auxiliary forcesvolunteers, militia, and yeomanryand its imperial mission during the late Victorian era, looking especially at why the British war effort came to depend on their performance.

ISBN10: 0806138645, ISBN13: 9780806138640, [publisher: University of Oklahoma Press] Hardcover First Edition A hint of wear to the spine ands of the jacket, otherwise a clean, bright copy. When the Second Boer War erupted in South Africa in 1899, Great Britain was confident that victory would come quickly and decisively. Instead, the war lasted for three grueling years. To achieve final victory, the British government was forced to depend not only on its Regular Army but also on a large volunteer force. This book spotlights Britain’s “citizen army” to show who these volunteers were, why they enlisted, how they were trained—and how they quickly became disillusioned when they found themselves committed not to the supposed glories of conventional battle but instead to a prolonged guerrilla war.
