THE BOER VERSION OF THE TRANSVAAL WAR 

The full title of this book is "The Boer Version of the Transvaal War: An English translation of all Dutch Official telegrams received in Vryheid during Boer War up to the time when British troops occupied Vryheid."

The translator notes that his purpose was to present the most accurate translation of the official Boer telegrams. These telegrams originated from the ever-shifting seat of government of the ZAR. In Vryheid the Magistrate (Landdrost)commandeered the English printing press to print copies of the telegrams. These were then distributed free of charge in the area. A complete set of the telegrams was preserved, from which these translations were made.
