Condition: New. 2009 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1901). SB. xi+ 247 pp Maps and PlansPublished Price £14.50 This book will prove of unusual interest, not only to students of the Boer War, but to all those interested in military competence and the exercise of command in the field. Its author, Maj-Gen. Sir H.E. Colvile, was r…elieved of his command of the Ninth Division after twice incurring the displeasure of Lord Roberts, C-in-C of the British Army in South Africa. The affair led to a Parliamentary Inquiry - demanded by the young Winston Churchill - which backed Robertsâ condemnation of Colvileâs conduct. In his report to Parliament, Roberts stated that Colvile had twice shown âA want of initiative and military capacityâ and had âFailed to grasp the situation and to act with the energy and enterprise . essential for command in the fieldâ. In a private note attached to his copy of this book General Sir Horace Smith-Dorrien - later a distinguished Great War commander - was even more damning. Smith-Dorrien - who had disobeyed Colvileâs orders to retire during the engagement at Sannahâs Post in order to rescue wounded men - wrote: âWere all the facts known about Gen. Colvileâs conduct on this occasion he would have (incurred) much severer comments than Lord Robertsâ. I was a Brigadier under him there and was absolutely disgusted with him as a General and as a manâ. This book - which includes an account of the decisive battle of Paardeburg - is Colvileâs defence. Read it and judge for yourself.
