Autorenporträt
Christiaan Rudolph de Wet (1854-1922) first gained military prominence with his leadership at the famous 1881 Battle of Majuba. His natural military leadership genius soon saw him promoted to "fighting general," a post he held to the end of the Second Boer War. After that conflict, he played a prominent role in Boer politics, which ended with his participation in the unsuccessful armed Boer Rebellion of 1914. He was buried at the foot of the Women's Memorial in Bloemfontein.
