The Zulu War examines the 1879 Anglo-Zulu conflict created by British expansion in southern Africa and the determination to break the independent Zulu kingdom. It follows the invasion of Zululand, the catastrophic British defeat at Isandlwana, the defence of Rorke’s Drift and the renewed campaign that ended at Ulundi. The book considers Zulu military organisation, British command and the political decisions that led to war and the destruction of Zulu independence.
