About this product
Product Information
The surge of public interest in the Zulu War has been quite extraordinary. While in part attributable to increased tourism and the hugely successful film Zulu, one man above all others is responsible - namely David Rattray. Known to many thousands for his emotional and evocative lectures, he also owns a top battlefield-touring lodge Fugitive Drift, close to Iswandlwana and Rorke's Drift. This is David Rattray's first publication (his cassettes and videos have sold thousands) and the power of his name will be considerable. No one is better qualified to explain the causes of this strange colonial war when British Imperial might was initially humiliated in a ghastly slaughter. Pride was somewhat salvaged by the heroic defence of Rorke's Drift and thereafter the Zulus were doomed. Today the battlefields are frequently visited and this attractive book is the perfect companion, being both authoritative, well illustrated and highly accessible.Product Identifiers

A must buy for anyone interested in the Anglo-Zulu wars from one of the best historians of this period of history.

Maps, pictures and words take you to the scenes of battle
The late David Rattray owned and lived at Fugitives Drift and his family continue his work to research and explain the narrative of the 1879 battles at Isandlwana & Rorkes Drift from this unique location in KwaZulu Natal. Who better to tell the story? I’ve been fortunate to visit these two battlefields twice, in 2016 & 2018, staying at Fugitives Drift Lodge, and reading the details and reviewing the maps and illustrations that are provided in this book vividly recall my experience.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
