Written soon after the capture of King Cetshwayo, this account of the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 deliberately waited a year so the authors could weigh motives as well as events. It covers the invasion of Zululand, the columns of Wood and others, river crossings and camp practice, the disasters and the final march on Ulundi, from a firmly British point of view.
A contemporary narrative for students of the colonial wars, carrying the imperial assumptions of 1880 throughout. Download the free EPUB.
