Description

The Zulu War depicts the scenes and protagonists of the Zulu War exactly as they appeared to those who took part a hundred years ago. Michael Barthorp, a distinguished military historian and former Regular Army Officer, in an exhaustive study of the Zulu War, has researched over 150 photographs and contemporary illustrations from museums and private collections, both of Britain and South Africa, many have never been published before. These are complimented by a text which explains the background and causes of the war, the opposite forces and plans, and the course of the campaign, from its disastrous beginning until the final overthrow of the most feared tribe in Africa. Fascinating!
