A concise history of the Battle of Isandlwana, the first encounter of the Anglo-Zulu War in 1879.
In 1878, H.M. High Commissioner for Southern Africa and the Lieut. General Commanding H.M. Forces, clandestinely conspired to invade the Zulu Kingdom. Drastically underestimating their foe, the invaders had been vanquished within days of entering the Zulu Kingdom, in one of the greatest disasters ever to befall a British army.
The author not only dramatically describes the events leading up to the Battle of Isandlwana, and the battle itself but, with new evidence, disputes many aspects of the campaign long held sacrosanct.
Praise for
The Anglo Zulu War: Isandlwana
"It offers a controversial but compelling account of the battle that underlines the consequences of operational arrogance and underestimating the fighting abilities of a less technologically equipped enemy - something that should resonate with all those who serve." -

"This is a book that should be on the bookshelves of everyone who is interested in the history of South Africa." -The South African Military Society
