With Buller In Natal is a historical fiction novel written by G.A. Henty. The story is set in Natal, South Africa during the Second Boer War in 1899. It follows the adventures of a young Englishman named Dick who travels to South Africa to fight alongside the British army led by General Buller. Throughout the novel, Dick experiences the harsh realities of war as he participates in various battles and skirmishes against the Boer forces. He also meets several historical figures, including Winston Churchill and General Buller himself. The novel provides a detailed account of the tactics and strategies used by both sides during the war, as well as the political and social implications of the conflict. It also explores themes of bravery, loyalty, and patriotism. Overall, With Buller In Natal is a thrilling and informative tale of adventure and heroism set against the backdrop of a significant moment in South African history.The rifles at once spoke out. The lads had all used the boulders behind which they crouched as rests for their rifles, and confident of their shooting and their position, their aim was deadly. Five or six of the leading Boers fell and several horses, the rest came to an abrupt pause, galloped back some little distance and then dismounted, and leaving their horses in shelter, disappeared from sight. In a short time a dropping fire was opened from both sides of the valley.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
