  The definitive account of Commando: A Boer Journal of the Anglo-Boer War, published word-for-word as Reitz first wrote it in the English translation; edited and annotated by historian and Anglo-Boer War expert, Professor Fransjohan Pretorius.
  In 1899, Deneys Reitz, then aged seventeen, enlisted in the Boer army to fight the British. He had learnt to ride, shoot and swim almost as soon as he could walk. He made full use of these skills and the endurance he had acquired in the next three years of the war, during which he fought with the Boer commandos.
  He was involved in major actions, like the battle of Spioen Kop, and he interacted with prolific political and military figures of the time, such as President Paul Kruger, Boer generals Piet Joubert, Louis Botha, Koos de la Rey, Christiaan Beyers, Jan Smuts and British commander Lord Kitchener. He even met the young Winston Churchill as a prisoner-of-war in Pretoria. Reitz forged a strong personal and political friendship with General Jan Smuts after the war, built on reciprocal respect.
  Commando is more than a historical document; it is a literary masterpiece that transcends time.
  With prose that captures both the brutality and the beauty of war, Reitz weaves a narrative that resonates with authenticity and passion.
  As relevant today as when it was first penned, Commando has become a South African classic and stands as a testament to the indomitable human spirit.

At the same time, he has forced what was hidden into the open.This book explains how this happened, why it matters, and what each of us can do to turn things around. 
   
  Both warning and blueprint, it offers a pathway to renewing the American ideal—and using it to model a new global ideal.
