As the South African War reached its grueling end in 1902, colonial
interests at the highest levels of the British Empire hand-picked
teachers from across the Commonwealth to teach the thousands of
Boer children living in concentration camps. Highly educated, hard
working, and often opinionated, E. Maud Graham joined the Canadian
contingent of forty teachers. Her eyewitness account reveals the
complexity of relations and tensions at a controversial period in
the histories of both Britain and South Africa. Graham presents a
lively historical travel memoir, and the editors have provided rich
political and historical context to her narrative in the
Introduction and generous annotations. This is a rare primary
source for experts in Colonial Studies, Women's Studies, and
Canadian, South African, and British Imperial History. Readers with
an interest in the South African War will be intrigued by Graham's
observations on South African society at the end of the Victorian
era.
