About this event
Technology innovations during the First and Second Boer Wars shattered romanticized illusions of nineteenth-century empire, forcing a complacent British military establishment to confront the lethal realities of modern warfare. Dr. Sean Kalic analyzes the deep systemic vulnerabilities that led to Great Britain's tactical and organizational reforms. Free with RSVP | Auditorium and Online RSVP
