Battle of Talana Hill

1899 battle of the Second Boer War

The Battle of Talana Hill, also known as the Battle of Glencoe, was the first major clash of the Second Boer War. A frontal attack by British infantry supported by artillery drove the Boers from a hilltop position, but the British suffered heavy casualties in the process, including their commanding general, Sir William Penn Symons, being mortally wounded.
