Summary
This illustration entitled "A Perilous Position", by cartoonist Clifford Berryman, which appeared in the Washington Post on August 25, 1899, depicts Paul Kruger, leader of the South African Republic drawn like a moth to the flame of war, when precious metals were found in abundance in the territory the Boers were forced to occupy after British colonization of South Africa. With the discovery of these diamond and gold deposits civil unrest grew and the flame of war rose high.
