- Title
Framing Canada's Great War: a case for including the Boer War.
- Authors
Miller, Carman
- Abstract
This article notes the dearth of reference to the South African War in the growing literature on Canada's participation in the Great War. It argues a case for assessing the military and civilian legacy of the South African War upon Canada's management and experience of the Great War, its mobilisation, leadership, behaviour and perceptions; suggesting that the South African conflict had a greater influence upon Canada's response to the Great War than historians have assumed, an influence out of proportion to Canada's relatively limited contribution to the South African War.
