EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the lines of advance from Bloemfontein to Pretoria during the Boer Wars in South Africa. Created by an unknown artist, this map showcases the positions and lines of advance of British forces under the leadership of Frederick Sleigh Roberts and John French in 1901. The image is taken from "The Life and Deeds of Earl Roberts, Vol. IV. - To Lord Robertss Reign in Pall Mall" by J. Maclaren Cobban, published in 1901 by T. C. & E. C. Jack, Edinburgh. Intriguingly detailed, this map provides a glimpse into the strategic movements made by the British army as they fought against Boer forces during this turbulent period between 1899-1902. Highlighted on this map are key locations such as Bloemfontein, Free State, Gauteng (including Johannesburg), and Pretoria - all significant areas where battles were fought or advances were made. Field Marshal Frederick Sleigh Roberts and Field Marshal John Denton Pinkstone French played crucial roles in leading these advances for Britain during the Boer Wars. This historical artifact not only serves as a visual representation but also offers valuable insights into military tactics employed during that time period. A remarkable piece capturing an important chapter in both South African and British history. "
