Book excerpt: Excerpt from Naval Brigades in the South African War, 1899-1900 Despite the fact that so much has already been written on the subject, I feel assured that this little contribution to the history Of the struggle in South Africa needs neither explanation nor excuse. It is the story Of how, at a time when their comrades of the land service were in dire need of help, the seamen hastened to place their ships' guns on improvised carriages, took them ash ore, and in the nick of tims enabled our military forces to cope on equal terms with the Boer artillery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the part played by the Royal Navy in the Boer War has been overlooked among all the land based operations then this book will help to put matters right; the naval guns, brought ashore on improvised carriages, enabled the army to cope on equal terms with the Boer artillery and Royal Marines supplemented army units. A brigade of 17 officers and 267 men was at Ladysmith with guns to match those of the Boers; 33 died, of these one officer and five men were battle casualties , 27 (two of them officers) died from disease. And naval gun detachments outside the town played a big part in the relief. Another brigade, in Cape Colony, joined Lord Methuen s Kimberley relief force and took part in the battle of Belmont on 23 November 1899. Two days later a brigade which included 200 marines were in action at Graspan (also known as the battle of Enslin), a strong Boer position, and in the operations leading to its capture the marines lost 3 officers and 86 men of a total casualty list of 9 officers and 185 men. This is a comprehensive account of operations involving naval and marine units and appendices include casualty details, names of officers and details of honours and awards, including mention in despatches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The South African War, 1899-1900: A Military Retrospect Up to the Relief of Ladysmith In submitting these pages to readers already, in many cases, as well informed as myself, I should explain that I did not at first intend to do so; rather, in collecting material for a monthly article on the War for my brother officers, I began to wish for an impartial account from a military point of view. Thanks to the kind assistance of the R.E. Institute with the maps and plans, I am now enabled to hope that what has afforded pleasure to me may become of some use to others. As some may think the criticisms in these pages are personal, and hardly become my comparative inexperience, I would say that, in accepting a command, one's own friends and teachers become public characters, and, rightly, the subjects of public criticism; also I venture to think that they would prefer criticism to come from the pen of a brother officer, earnestly seeking the truth, rather than from that of a literary or journalistic genius.

Book excerpt: With the big guns of the Royal Navy in South Africa During the history of warfare-particularly during the nineteenth century-there has been the need to employ naval brigades for duty on land fighting alongside the army. Both the Indian Mutiny and the Zulu War saw sailors in action far from their ships. The Boer War was no exception. Although essentially a citizen army the Boer forces often had superiority of firepower as a result of the adoption of up to date weaponry. All Armies, the British included, lagged behind-trusting to the tried rather than the innovative. Artillery was ever the master of the battlefield however and there is an overwhelming power to naval guns served by naval gunners which is almost impossible to counter by forces lacking the same facility. The author of this book, C. R. N. Burne was a serving naval officer and one of those detached for such duty during the conflict in South Africa. His story is full of interesting detail of life on campaign and the of the guns themselves in action.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Brigade in South Africa During the Years 1877-78-79 IN publishing this volume; I think that some eicplenation is necessary as to my reasons for doing so. In the first place, because I em aware that books on South Africa are already thick as leaves in Vallambrosa and, se condly, because, when a man Wishes to find an excuse for inflicting his compositions on the public, he frequently, sometimes archly, says that he does so at the request of numerous friends this is, however, really and precisely What I em doing in the present instance - my friends of the Naval Brigade of h.m.s. Active having repeatedly re quested me to write an account of our cam paigns, and I think principally from the fact that on both Occasions I kept a rather extensive journal of our proceedings. The matter contained in the following pages is either such as came under my personal oh servation, or such as was imparted to me by those Who, from long residence, had becomethoroughly conversant with Kafir life. To my friend the Rev. Mr. Robertson, of Kwa magwaza, Zululand, I am chiefly indebted for what I know of the rise, progress, habits, and customs of the Zulu nation; and I shall always look back with pleasure to that eventful time, when his interesting lectures an d conversations were the only bright spots in a very gloomy scene. In compiling this volume I have consulted no published work whatever, with the exception of Dohne's zuln-kafir Dictionary, to which I had te course when in doubt as to the meaning of Kafir terms. I am fully aware both of the defects and shortcomings of this work; but should I have succeeded in furnishing my old comrades of the Naval Brigade, now scat tered far and wide, with an acceptable record of those, to as, memorable times in South.
