I am preparing a presentation for the Talana Conference in July on the topic of Boer War casualties. Most of the presentation centres on the imperial casualties for which there is good data.
In the introduction, I have a slide showing overall casualties, on both sides, military and civilian.
I am having trouble identifying a number for Boer Military deaths (killed and DOW).
Using Appendix 20 in Maurice's History , I have come to an approximation of 5,654.
Does anyone know of more accurate sources?
