About this ebook
"Camp Fire Yarns of the Lost Legion" by G. Hamilton-Browne is a book that reveals the anecdotes of soldiers against the Maori tribes in South Africa.
Excerpt:
"In introducing these yarns let me state that now I am laid up on the shelf my thoughts go back to those days and nights of the veld and bush, and I frequently feel I would give all the rest of the map if I could again find myself on the open lands of the frontier with a good horse between my knees and a few scores of the old boys behind me. Now I hold pen instead of carbine and revolver, but why should memories of the old days pass away? Let me fancy I sit by the camp fire again, telling yarns as we used to under the dark blue skies and blazing stars of South Africa. Let me spin you some yarns of the Lost Legion."
