This thesis will examine how Churchill's experience in the Boer War
affected his career and leadership style. Initial research revealed
that Churchill planned to make some major life decisions in 1899
the year he participated in The Boer War. Fate and other variables
such as his financial independence and celebrity status enabled
rapid realization of his goals to attain political office in the
British government. Research indicated that Churchill's experience
while a Boer prisoner of war (POW) and his subsequent escape proved
to be an especially formative experience for him professionally. In
addition, his POW experience taught him the Boer perspective of the
conflict, which developed his leadership and personality. Secondary
questions answered are: How did his experience as a POW affect him?
What did his experiences in Cuba, India, and Sudan teach him? What
were Churchill's motivations during his time in the British Army?
Using a chronological approach throughout this paper will provide
the reader with the most logical and easiest method of answering
these questions.
