Beskrivelse af A Canadian Girl In South Africa (1905)
""A Canadian Girl in South Africa"" is a memoir written by E. Maud Graham in 1905 about her experiences living in South Africa during the Second Boer War. Graham, a young Canadian woman, traveled to South Africa in 1900 as a nurse with the Canadian contingent of the British Army. She worked in military hospitals and field stations, caring for wounded soldiers and civilians. In her book, Graham describes the harsh conditions of war, including the shortage of medical supplies, the prevalence of disease, and the constant danger of enemy attack. She also writes about her interactions with the local South African population, including the Boer women and children who were held in concentration camps by the British. Throughout the book, Graham reflects on her own beliefs and values, and how her experiences in South Africa challenged and changed them. She also provides a unique perspective on the war, as a woman and a Canadian, and offers insights into the complexities of colonialism and imperialism. Overall, ""A Canadian Girl in South Africa"" is a fascinating and informative account of a little-known aspect of Canadian and South African history, as well as a compelling personal narrative of courage and compassion in the face of war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
