Very good near fine copy.

An absorbing account of the author\'s experiences in the Frontier war of 1850-1853, usually refered to in South African history as the 8th Frontier war. This was a particularly savage war since many of the Hottentot soldiers enrolled in the Colonial forces rebelled and joined the Xhosas.
