This book is a republication of the original title with an edited OCR file and a translation into Afrikaans and English and covers the functioning and daily life in a concentration camp during the Anglo Boer War 1899 to 1902. Now with comments by the translator and a few photographs   covering the period. It will serve historians and people who study the transformation of Dutch into Afrikaans. The Translator's own grandmother has been in Merebank concentration camp and a photo is included. The People in Pretoria have played an important role via the overseas Embassy's but the role of Emily Hobhouse can't be ignored.  The mortality rates stated exceed the figures in the English official publications but both are abnormally high. The crux of the matter is the forced removal of people away from their natural resources into thin tents without adequate personal cover and punitive inadequate nutrition  led to malnutrition and susceptibility to disease.
