The next chapter which covers the period January to June 1902 has been added: www.angloboerwar.com/books/254-hobhouse-...ther-homes-destroyed

The intensity and profound sadness of this book continues with improvements in the concentration camps more than offset by the continuing policy of home burning but now without the compassion of conveying those families to camps.
