Celia Sandys goes 'in grandfather's footsteps' to retrace young Winston Churchill's adventures during nine months of the Anglo-Boer War in South Africa - where Churchill served as war correspondent, combatant (at Spion Kop and Ladysmith), prisoner-of-war and escapee. Sandys has uncovered a hitherto neglected part of Churchill's life using many previously untapped sources and giving many hitherto unknown facts and anecdotes.
