An excellent, well-researched history of Baden-Powell and his remarkable and successful establishment of the South African Constabulary. Lauded by many as the hero of the siege of Mafeking during the Boer War, Baden-Powell’s exploits became well known in Britain and South Africa. He was felt to be the most capable for the job of putting together men to form an armed and mounted police force in the Transvaal and Orange River Colony.
