Book Overview

War's Brighter Side is a book that tells the story of The Friend newspaper, which was edited by correspondents who were with Lord Roberts's forces during the period of March to April in the year 1900. The book was written by Julian Ralph and was published in the year 1901. The Friend newspaper was created during the Second Boer War, which was fought between the British Empire and two Boer states, the South African Republic and the Orange Free State. The newspaper was intended to boost the morale of the British troops and to provide them with a sense of community while they were far away from home. The correspondents who edited the newspaper included some of the most famous journalists of the time, such as Rudyard Kipling and Winston Churchill. The book provides a fascinating insight into the role of the media during wartime and the ways in which it can be used to shape public opinion. It also offers a unique perspective on the Second Boer War, which was a significant conflict in the history of the British Empire. Overall, War's Brighter Side is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the experiences of soldiers and journalists during a pivotal moment in world history.With Contributions From A. Conan Doyle, Rudyard Kipling, And Others, And A Letter From Earl Roberts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
