""Dr. Jameson???????s Raiders Vs. The Johannesburg Reformers"" is a historical book by Richard Harding Davis, published in 1897. The book narrates the events of the infamous Jameson Raid, which took place in South Africa in 1895-96. The raid was led by Dr. Leander Starr Jameson, a British colonial statesman, and was aimed at overthrowing the Boer government in the Transvaal region. The book provides a detailed account of the raid and the subsequent trial of Jameson and his men. It also sheds light on the political and economic factors that led to the raid, including the tension between the British and Boer settlers in South Africa and the discovery of gold in the region. Davis, a prominent American journalist and war correspondent, was present in South Africa during the raid and had access to firsthand information and sources. His book is considered a valuable historical document and an important source for understanding the complex political dynamics of South Africa in the late 19th century. Overall, ""Dr. Jameson???????s Raiders Vs. The Johannesburg Reformers"" is a gripping and informative account of a pivotal moment in South African history, written by a skilled and experienced journalist.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
