EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures General Sir Thomas Kelly-Kenny (1840-1914), a distinguished British Army general, during the Second Boer War in 1900. Kelly-Kenny, wearing the full regalia of his military rank, stands proudly among the captured wagons of the Boer commander, General J.B.M. Hertzog, also known as Cronje. The image documents a significant moment in the war, as Kelly-Kenny's Sixth Division had successfully captured over seventy of Cronje's wagons, which held a large quantity of valuable stores and ammunition. This victory marked a turning point in the conflict, boosting morale for the British forces and weakening the Boer resistance. The image serves as a testament to the strategic prowess and determination of General Sir Thomas Kelly-Kenny and the British Army during this pivotal moment in history.
