The subtitle makes clear the subject of this book, Some Account of the Royal Sussex Regiment In South Africa. This is the story of the 1st R Sussex in which the author served and which arrived in S Africa in April 1900. Du Moulin s narrative takes the action up to the end of December 1900 which he wrote up during a quiet spell while the battalion was providing the garrison for Lindley but then had to give up when he got command of a mounted column. He was killed in action at Abraham s Kraal on 28 January 1902 having gone through the campaign from the advance to Pretoria, to the pursuit of de Wet and, after de Wet, the pursuit of the broken commandos without a wound or a day s sickness. However, as it had been his intention to write a complete account there were his notes and these, together with diaries, letters and personal reminiscences of other officers were used to complete the story, a task undertaken by Capt H.F.Bidder who describes du Moulin s death. In the appendices there is an account of the 13th Mounted Infantry Battalion which included in its ranks 70 NCOs and men from the R Sussex, and of the 21st Mounted Infantry made up largely of R Sussex personnel.

Louis Eugène du Moulin was of French descent. By birth he was a New Zealander. He passed through Sandhurst and entered the army in 1879, joining the 107th Regiment—now the Second Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment. With this battalion all his service was spent, until his promotion in 1899 as second in command of the First Battalion Royal Sussex Regiment (the old 35th).

At war on the veldt This book, written by a colonel of the regiment, recounts the experiences of the Royal Sussex Regiment throughout its service during the Second Anglo-Boer War in South Africa. The story of the Royal Sussex is typified as 'a trek, ' a phrase used by the Boers themselves to describe the long and usually gruelling marches they undertook across the African veldt and a phrase which perfectly describes the doings of one of Queen Victoria's foot-slogging county regiments of infantry upon whom much of the hard campaigning and fighting fell in this last imperial war at the end of the nineteenth century. The reader joins the Sussex men in many hard fought engagements, including the fight on the Zand River, the fiercely contested action at Diamond Hill and many others. The campaign landscape of the Boer War meant that mounted men could move across huge distances quickly and the enemy demonstrated the effectiveness of these tactics in the use of the incomparable Boer 'commandos.' In response the British raised mounted columns employing mounted infantry and the Royal Sussex were actively involved in both the 13th and 21st M. I. whose activities are also detailed here. The book also contains an honour role which will be of interest to genealogists. Available in softcover and hardcover with dustjacket for collectors.

Fostered by an increasingly literate public and burgeoning populist press, the South African War—which ended the lives of many volunteer British soldiers—would catalyze a transition in British commemorative practice, foreshadowing the rituals of remembrance that engulfed Britain in the aftermath of the First World War. In this book, Peter Donaldson provides the first comprehensive look at how the British remembered the South African War and its fighters. He situates memorialization within larger Edwardian Britain, examining everything from the committees who managed memorials to the financing that supported them to the aesthetic debates that determined their forms. Through his comprehensive study of the remembrance of this single war, Donaldson illuminates the ways Britain has gone about managing history—and its sense of self within it—ever since.
