The Rand at War, 1899-1902: The Witwatersrand and the Anglo-Boer War

By Diana Cammack

The wealth and power of Johannesburg and the Witwatersrand were a focal point of the tension, which led to the Anglo-Boer war. This is a social history of the community. It features the 'randlords', the British rulers, and the Boer generals, and describes the working people - Uitlander, Boer, and Black, whether miner, shop clerk, or seamstress.
