When Boer farmers fought the British Army: the Battle of Colenso

The History Guy remembers the Battle of Colenso, a conflict which took place during the Second Boer War in South Africa.

The episode discusses events and includes photos and artwork depicting a period of war, which some viewers may find disturbing. All events are described for educational purposes and are presented in historical context.

The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photographs of actual events are often not available, I will sometimes use photographs of similar events or objects for illustration.
