Second Boer War - De Wet led a renewed invasion of Cape Colony

Time: Jan, 1901

Place: South Africa

Details: In late January 1901, De Wet led a renewed invasion of Cape Colony. This was less successful, because there was no general uprising among the Cape Boers, and De Wet's men were hampered by bad weather and relentlessly pursued by British forces. They narrowly escaped across the Orange River.
