A novel that looks at the miscarriage of justice that happened to some soldiers in the time of the Boer War. Or, again, you shouldn't get caught shagging the superior officer's woman, or that can mean very very bad things. An interesting look at a period of military history.
Great Book !

Brings to life the times and tragedy of Harry "Breaker" Morant. From his time in the bush to his execution at the hands of the British for allegedly shooting POWs in the Boer War. Even if it doesn't quite follow the facts, it's a great read !
