In Boereoorlogstories 2 tree ook jonger skrywers tot die gesprek toe, onder andere Christine Barkhuizen Le Roux, Jaco Fouché en Gerda Taljaard. Die verhale van lyding en opoffering wat die eerste bundel gekenmerk het, word in die tweede bundel verbreed met ’n skerper blik op verraad. Die joiner en hensopper kom as uitgeworpene onder die soeklig (“Die groot gemis”, Dolf van Coller) maar ook as feilbare mens in vertwyfeling (“Was Oupa dapper?”, Lappe Laubscher; “Groete daar op Voorstevlei”, Jaco Fouché.) Die verkwikking van humor oor ernstige sake bly nie uit nie. Ook is daar erkenning vir die feit dat alle soldate van die Britse Ryk nie demone was nie (“Eenmaal was daar ’n goeie man”, Marita van Aswegen). En die Boer Gideon Scheepers – vir die Britse Ryk ’n rebel wat teregstelling verdien het vir sy verraad jeens sy regering – word geteken in sy barmhartigheid jeens ’n Engelse vrou op die platteland. Só belig hierdie tweede bundel ’n nog wyer spektrum as die eerste in sterk verhale en ’n idioom wat die tydperk van die Anglo-Boereoorlog lewend hou: vir lesers met ’n voorkeur vir historiese verhale, maar ook vir enige leser wat die kortverhaalkuns waardeer. *Name and date on first free page; neatly covered in clear sticky plastic.*

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.
