Recollections of a Boer Prisoner-of-War at Ceylon is a memoir written by J.N. Brink about his experiences as a prisoner of war during the Second Boer War. Brink was a member of the Boer army, fighting against the British in South Africa, when he was captured and sent to a prison camp in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The book provides a firsthand account of life in the prison camp, including the harsh living conditions, the daily routines, and the relationships between the Boer prisoners and their British captors. Brink also writes about his own personal experiences, including his thoughts and feelings during his time in captivity. In addition to his own story, Brink also provides historical context for the Second Boer War and the events that led up to his capture. He discusses the political and social tensions between the Boers and the British, as well as the military strategies used by both sides during the conflict. Overall, Recollections of a Boer Prisoner-of-War at Ceylon offers a unique perspective on a little-known aspect of the Second Boer War and provides insight into the experiences of prisoners of war during this time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
