| 520 | _a"The Boer in Peace and War" by Arthur M. Mann is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the Boer people of South Africa, delving into their social behaviors, cultural practices, and interactions with both the indigenous population and British settlers during a time of great change and conflict in the region. Mann provides an insightful examination of the Boer character, depicting them as either fiercely independent or suspiciously reclusive depending on the context. Through various anecdotes and character sketches, the text illustrates their relationships within communities, providing a glimpse into Boer life, from farming practices to social gatherings and their military prowess. The book also highlights the tensions between the Boers and the British, particularly during the Boer War, indicating how historical grievances and national identity shape their perspectives. While the tone can sometimes be humorous or critical of Boer customs, it ultimately seeks to portray a multi-faceted view of their culture amidst the backdrop of conflict and change.
