    Episode 257 - The First Modern British Conflict - The Boer War
    Jan 19 2026
    Today we turn to a conflict that shaped the final years of the Victorian era and left deep marks on towns and villages across Wales. The Boer War, fought between 1899 and 1902, was a clash between the British Empire and the two Boer republics in South Africa. It was a conflict of imperial ambition, political controversy and human tragedy, and Wales was deeply involved in all of it.

There has obviously been a lot of passion and spirit put into the research behind this series. However, it is such a shame that the narrator makes such a hash of pronunciation of common place names and other words. He lived in Wales for a while & I am surprised that he did not even pick up how the very common names and words were spoken - Welsh/Cymraeg is from an oral tradition and to make such a mess of the spoken language sadly renders this unlistenable.

Passionately researched but ..... unlistenable ....
