He became a key figure in the founding of the Navy League of Great Britain in 1894. Wilkinson's views on military affairs remained widely influential until his death. During the early months of the Boer War 1899-1900 he made remarkably accurate forecasts of military movements. Here he comments on lessons learned from the Boer War from week to week until the relief of Ladysmith. In the publisher's original cloth binding.
