London: Blackie & Son, 1936 General Botha was a fine soldier, a great South African, and one of the most lovable of men. Colonel Trew, who commanded his body guard of mounted police in 1914 1915, and became one of his closest friends, writes of him here with all the affection of healthy hero worship, for though this is a book of reminiscences, Botha's persona lity dominates and enriches every page. The text abounds in amusing anecdotes and incidents, and there are illuminating sidelights on such men as Roberts, Kitchener, Haig, and Smuts. Insk incriptions on first page. ------------------ Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall
