Boereverraaier: Teregstellings Tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog
R140.00
Quick Overview
Die Anglo-Boereoorlog het nie net helde opgelewer nie. In die stryd het broer teen broer ook teen mekaar te staan gekom. Duisende republikeinse burgers het as joiners by die Britse magte aangesluit, terwyl ander weer inligting oor die Boeremagte aan die vyand verskaf het. Die straf vir hul verraad? Die dood. In Boereverraaier word die teregstellings dramaties herskep met aanhalings uit dagboeke en veldverslae. Daar is tragiese verhale soos die van vier broers van Wakkerstroom wat almal op een dag gefusilleer is en kommandolede wat van hul voormalige makkers moes teregstel."
Tydens die Anglo-Boereoorlog was dit nie net Boer teen Brit nie, maar ook Boer teen Boer. Etlike burgers van die Boere-republieke het as joiners by die Britse magte aangesluit, terwyl ander inligting oor die Boeremagte aan die vyand verskaf het.
Die straf vir dié verraad? Die dood.
In een geval moes kommandolede van hul voormalige makkers teregstel, terwyl vier broers van Wakkerstroom wat die wapen opgeneem het teen die Boeremagte almal op dieselfde dag gefusilleer is.
Albert Blake het argiewe gefynkam, vergete grafstene gevind en die nageslag van tereggesteldes opgespoor om vas te stel hoe diep die verskynsel van verraad die Afrikaner geraak het. Hy het selfs afgekom op teregstellings wat nie vantevore al opgeteken is nie.
Hy haal uit dagboeke en veldverslae aan om die teregstellings dramaties te herskep. Blake ontbloot hoe Boereverraad tydens die dekades van Afrikaner-nasionalisme onder die mat gevee is, maar ook hoe dit tot in die 20ste eeu nog by Afrikaners gespook het.

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
