dc.description	The editors claim that this book attempts to further stimulate debate on<br />the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902. Therefore, they included contributions from<br />different disciplines, but with the main emphasis still on historical writing. They<br />strived to continue the tradition to regard all historical debate as temporary and<br />within the expression by the Dutch historian, Pieter Geyl, that history is a debate<br />without end. From that point of view, the publication is timely and has the<br />potential to enhance our comprehension of one of the events that had a profound<br />influence on the history of South Africa. Because of the divergent approaches of<br />the different authors, the different contributions are briefly analysed before a value<br />judgement on the publication as a whole is made.
