Publisher's summary

FNH Audio presents an unabridged reading of The Defence of Duffers Drift. Written in 1902, this book tells the story of a young officer during the Boer War tasked with defending a river crossing. The officer has a sequence of dreams about the failing defence of the crossing, but with each dream, he learns the lessons of his failed efforts.

This book has been sufficiently valued as a learning tool, that it exists to this day in the military libraries of both Britain and the United States.

Great iterative learning

This is the shorter version of the two options. I preferred this reader compared to the other available option.
