The Boers were probably the toughest (and bravest) adversaries that we (the British) ever encountered. They kept our Empire forces pinned down for several years and the way that their women and children were treated in "concentration camps" leaves a painful and shameful scar in our history. I salute them!

He's been fighting a guerilla war for months and months. The British have imprisoned the families of the Boers in concentration camps and burned their crops so as to deprive the Kommandos of support. Many of those imprisoned have starved. He knows his Sarie has probably met a harsh fate in British hands. He just wants to go home and see if he can find her.

bliksim45 this is true. I am also expat SA saddened I read negatives today about ZAR and the current Regime. The Afrikaners are the only people in history who decided to hand over power voluntarily hoping that this will bring in a new era in that multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, etc diverse Country. 20 years on since 1994 the Country is still adjusting. The problem is ideology of the new regime, the same mistakes common in Africa after independence should not be repeated. Imagine that the Afrikaner and the whites in general had refused to hand over power in 1994. It was decided to do it and the white electoral accept it, under the new constitution. Now blacks realizing more and more that the past had merits under the minority regime even for them. They are marginalized by their own race, together with whites, coloreds, Asians and may end up like the Bushmen if it carries on like this. Cry the beloved Country.

Bliksim I agree with you. We the whites could had chosen differently out of intransigence and we could had dragged on into the unknown for years. But it was time to turn the page as we can be united and a lot stronger in every respect. The difficulties were always known perhaps overlooked in the belief that all shall behave properly. Well no one expected Zuma to emerge like a cockroach and via the Indian friends attempt to usurp the whole Country 50 million plus and all Industry and Banks, Business to them so that they 'recover' from the 'apartheid sufferings' themselves and their elites. To hell with everything else. I dont distinguish between Afrikaners and Englishmen or other Europeans. Any one born in Africa and spent the first years of his life drinking NILE water or smell the Drakensberg Air or the Karoo etc. Anyone born in Africa is African difference in the skin colour.

The fact that "commando" was originally a Boer word for a mounted irregular soldier has nothing to do with what Montgomery is supposed to have said. Having said that, it is thought to be apocryphal.

There is no nation on earth that does not have some blemish....South Africa can, however, consider it fortunate in that they followed the British rule of law and were able to establish the biggest economy in Africa partly due to the British help and influence. South Africans helped Britain in two wars to fight the Germans which is pretty amazing. Sadly it was also England that helped install the Marxist regime that runs that country now....runs being the operative word....into the ground with their senseless demonizing of the very people that build the country from nothing.

A bit late with my comment, but I'm English and I lived in Pretoria in the 1970s. The Afrikaans- speakers in the cities were noticeably hostile to the English/British, but because of my father's work we came into contact with a lot of Boer farmers. They were always friendly and helpful, lovely people. I never understood this difference in attitude. They didn't stand to gain anything from my father's contact with them, yet they were so nice. Can anyone give me a reason for this difference between city folk and farmers? I've often wondered about it.

Strangely enough I spoke to my mother about this yesterday. People in places like Upington or Cradock were always friendly and rather polite. Could it be that these communities, being somewhat isolated, relying on each other and less spoiled than people in Pretoria, understand life's hardships therefore making them more humble? I have never lived in Pretoria and somehow I do not think I would have felt comfortable there myself.... I have been living in the countryside in the Netherlands now for over thirty years and the difference between city people and country folk is also noticeable. I am always amazed at how hard the farmers work and the community sense that exists here. People in the cities often do not even know their neighbours.

I've got this song on a 78 rpm record. (Columbia WEA 196 LE. 13) The label says: Chris A. Blignaut (Met Jansen Kwartet) Not "The Melodians". Or is the Jansen Kwartet the same group?

Sorry if I gave the impression that the British Empire was alone in the unfortunate history of abuses by a ruling colonial empire. Throughout the age of colonialism there were many horrible abuses by the ruling powers, e.g., the Belgian atrocities. The Roman Empire came close to being benevolent masters - but no people willingly give up their freedom. Rose Lynn Mangan

+Rose Mangan the "Belgian atrocities" were committed when Congo was owned by King Leopold II, Belgian authorities (nor its people) had nothing to do with it. At the end of his life, Leopold was forced to give "his" Congo to the state of Belgium. The United Kingdom invented the concentration camps, the only way to win a war against the Boers, that's a unique fact in world history.

Kudos aan jou! I'd love to know if you've tried or tried making regte, egte boerekos? Food that's particular to a language and culture is, like its music, the heart, soul and spirit of the culture. It's the distilled energy of the people and an excellent, profound auxillary to learning their language. Sjoe! Ek verlang nou dikstukke.

Transvaal and the Free State have definite parallels with the American Civil War which occured just 35 years before. When the Boers refused to capitulate after losing their cities they were headed straight for their very own Sherman's 'March to the Sea' and Sheridan's clearance of the Shenandoah Valley. Both events happened in 1864, so the Boer 'bitter-enders' should have had some idea of what they were calling on their women and children to endure. They'd already been rebuffed by all the powers of Europe that might have supported them, so only hatred and an over-arching belief in a religious miracle could have kept them going. Neither of which is something upon which to build a sound and independent country.

"I found the Boers ("Boer" is the old Dutch name for "farmer"), taking their young and old, dwellers in towns and land workers, a more intelligent people than the corresponding classes in England, which would include English farmers and labourers. They are far more moral in their lives and more sincerely religious than the British people. Young Boers are better men in every respect - physically and morally - than young Englishmen; and more intelligent, speaking as they nearly all do two languages, Dutch and English; while in their character and behaviour, in living clean and sober lives, they are far above the personal and moral standard of the average young Englishman of any class. Boer women never become prostitutes."

Such a wonderful song! But, please, dont let the old hostilities be active in our todays living together. Sooner or later the future should be "self-determination". And therefore the two groups should be reconciled and in a spirit of brotherhood. The point is "self-determination". Probably the only chance for a half-decent SA...

That is exactly what the Afrikaans National party stood for. Constantly promoting unity and playing the Boer war down. Yet a very large section of English speaking South Africans undermined and even Sabotaged the system.
