Painting the Map Red explains why men volunteered for service in the Anglo-Boer War, despite the rancorous pre-war debate on the wisdom of Canadian participation. This book also attempts to reveal how the soldiers' experiences in the field, and the public's perceptions of the war altered Canadian opinion, politics, and military development.
