Focusing on the wartime experiences of black individuals, this history of the South African War explores the complex dynamics within a colonial society shaped by mining capital. It examines how the conflict affected various segments of the black population, including chiefs, newspaper editors, and industrial workers. Dr. Warwick challenges traditional narratives by highlighting the active roles black people played in both the British and Boer armies, revealing their significant influence on the war's outcome and underscoring their agency in a predominantly white conflict.
