Beskrivning
A highly illustrated account of the greatest defeat suffered by the British Army during the Victorian era, from a world-leading authority.On 22 January 1879, a Zulu army of 24,000 warriors had moved undetected to within striking distance of the British camp in the shadow of Isandlwana Mountain. From the start the 1,700 defenders underestimated the danger descending upon them. They were swept aside with horrifying speed and the final stage of the battle consisted of desperate hand-to-hand fighting amid the British camp. Over 1,300 men were killed; scarcely 60 Europeans survived.Accompanied by maps and illustrations, Ian Knight employs new archaeological and historical research to provide a completely new interpretation of the course of the battle.
