Synopsis
Excerpt from With Bobs and Kruger: Experiences and Observations of an American War Correspondent in the Field With Both Armies, Illustrated From Photgraphs Taken by the Author
The greater part of this country is semi-barren. Sporadic garden-spots of territory exist, while stretches of desert comparable only to the bad lands of the Dakotas abound, and threaten to overwhelm like a rising sea the beautiful island-like oases which the sturdy burghers have torn from the reluctant soil and converted into beautiful homesteads seldom less than five or'ten miles distant from one another.
