  • Large book and a great read!

    .....The book is well constructed with a sturdy dust cover. There are colour photos in the book of paintings by various artsts which are of a high quality. Ian Knight explains not only the battles of Isandlwana and Rork's Drift but also is very specific about the reasons why these battles happened and the consequences for those who participated. Knight explains also, in the minutess detail the eventual outcome for the Zulu King and Lord Chelmsford's fall from grace.
