About this listen

FNH Audio presents an unabridged reading of The Defence of Duffers Drift. Written in 1902, this book tells the story of a young officer during the Boer War tasked with defending a river crossing. The officer has a sequence of dreams about the failing defence of the crossing, but with each dream, he learns the lessons of his failed efforts.

This book has been sufficiently valued as a learning tool, that it exists to this day in the military libraries of both Britain and the United States.
