About this book

The battle of Isandlwana was the single most destructive incident in the 150-year history of the British colonization of South Africa. In one bloody day over 800 British troops, 500 of their allies and at least 2,000 Zulus were killed. This title shows that the brutality of the battle was the result of clash between two warrior traditions.
