One of the Fighting Scouts: A Tale of Guerrilla Warfare in South Africa.
With 8 Illustrations by STANLEY L. WOOD, and a Map. 5s.

This story deals with the guerrilla aspect of the Boer War, and
shows how George Ransome is compelled to leave his father's farm
and take service with the British. He is given the command of a
band of scouts as a reward for gallantry, and with these he
punishes certain rebels for a piece of rascality, and
successfully attacks Botha's commando. Thanks to his knowledge
of the veldt he is of signal service to his country, and even
