No Rules : Inspired By A True Story Of Love And Courage During The Anglo-Boer War

When Britain went to war against the Boer republics in South Africa in 1899 it ripped the heart out of the Afrikaner people. The British, signatories to the first Hague Convention which set the rules for war, ignored those rules in their desperate efforts to defeat an already broken people. This fact-based story follows the trials and tribulations of Mattie Taljaard, a Boer woman, and John Errington, an English-speaking colonial who volunteered to fight for the British. As the tides of war ebbed and flowed they took Mattie and John through pain, suffering and tragedy until finally bringing them together in strange and moving circumstances. - Three maps.
