""Rights and Wrongs of the Transvaal War"" is a historical book written by Edward Tyas Cook in 1902. The book provides a detailed account of the Second Boer War, which took place from 1899 to 1902 in South Africa. Cook presents a comprehensive analysis of the events leading up to the war, the conduct of the war itself, and the eventual outcome. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the causes of the war, including the discovery of gold in the Transvaal, the tensions between the British and Boer settlers, and the role of key figures such as Paul Kruger and Cecil Rhodes. The second part focuses on the conduct of the war, including the strategies and tactics used by both sides, the experiences of soldiers and civilians, and the impact of the war on South Africa as a whole. The final part of the book examines the aftermath of the war, including the Treaty of Vereeniging, which ended the conflict, and the long-term implications of the war for South Africa and the British Empire. Throughout the book, Cook offers his own opinions on the rights and wrongs of the war, and the decisions made by both the British and Boer governments. Overall, ""Rights and Wrongs of the Transvaal War"" is a valuable historical resource for anyone interested in the Second Boer War, South African history, or the history of British imperialism. Cook's detailed and insightful analysis provides a nuanced understanding of the complex issues at play during this pivotal moment in world history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
