Overview
From my boyhood I have either been a soldier or taken the keenest interest in soldiering, not only in England but in all parts of the world. My military experiences extend through home, India and South Africa, and have been by no means of a sketchy character. I spent the best part of three years in South Africa, where I commanded a Yeomanry regiment, and at times Regular troops of all arms, during the Boer War. Those were glorious days-days when one could thoroughly enjoy warfare-a wild gallop over the veldt, a good fight in the open, and the day won by the best men. In these days war is robbed of all its glory and romance.
