Ambush!: How the Boers First Took on the British Empire (1842)

The 23rd of May 1842…Ring a bell? Probably not…unless you are a massive military history geek like me.

Well, it was the date of the Battle of Congella - the first time that British redcoats and Boer farmers went toe to toe.

It wasn’t a big battle but it was an important one and is almost completely forgotten - until now.

Join me in this episode as I explore the long forgotten battelfields.
