The Battle of Spioen Kop - From the Archives

Guerrilla History "From the Archives" is a new series of episodes, consisting of previously patreon-exclusive episodes that we are unlocking for the general public after one year.  This From the Archives episode was originally released on Patreon on May 29, 2021, and is about the Battle of Spioen Kop, during the Second Boer War.  This battle, which was an utter calamity for the British, was the last high water mark for the Boers during the Boer Wars, and ushered us  into the 20th century of warfare.
