Description - Who's Who in the Anglo Zulu War 1879 by Adrian Greaves
The Anglo-Zulu War of 1879 has a character that inspires and fascinates readers and increasing numbers of visitors to South Africa. The two volume biographical dictionary of the participants is a unique venture and this second volume reveals much about the formidable Zulu nation which so nearly humbled the mighty British Empire which had provoked the conflict. Thanks to the deep knowledge and research abilities of the two authors this fascinating book provides detail on both the leaders of the Zulu armies, which totalled some 40,000 warriors. We learn of the terrible price paid by this proud nation not just from the defeat by the British but in the civil war of 1883 brought about as a result of the internal tensions unleashed by the Zulu War. The role of the Colonials, be they British settlers, Boer or non-Zulu Africans is also examined through highly informative entries on the main personalities. AUTHORS: Dr. Adrian Greaves is the author of numerous Anglo-Zulu war books. IAN KNIGHT BA, FRGS is an acknowledged authority on the Anglo-Zulu War and the history of the Zulu Kingdom.
