Apparently the book to get, that includes a full description of Sir Abe Bailey's Sharpshooters & the rifle itself, is William Endley's 'South Africa at War - The Union Defence Force in World War 1'.

It looks to be a quality encyclopaedic tome, but is priced accordingly!

I think there was another book written on the unit some years ago, as well, but I have lost my reference to it. Will try & find it again......
