The Last Horseman

Bloomsbury presents The Last Horseman by David Gilman, read by Colin Mace.

South Africa, 1900.

The search for his missing son takes Joseph Radcliffe from the streets of Dublin, smouldering with rebellion, to the trackless veld of South Africa and the bloody brutality of the Anglo-Boer War.

As a former cavalryman in the US army, Radcliffe is no stranger to war, but 800 miles north of Cape Town, under fire from Boer commandos and distrusted by the British forces, he will find his survival skills tested to the hilt.

The Last Horseman is an epic tale of heroism and treachery, love and loyalty, set against the backdrop of a conflict that shook an empire to its core.©2025 David Gilman (P)2025 Head of Zeus

Reseñas de la Crítica

'A gripping ride through a memorable period of history' (Wilbur Smith)

'Gritty, compelling, an exciting yet moving tale of love, war and Africa' (Tony Park, bestselling author of THE DELTA)

Horrors of war, humanity of protagonists

Characters are finely drawn, historical information excellent, battles and military engagements well crafted. I must say, I favored the Boers, defending their homes against imperial greed.
