The Battle of Isandlwana

The Zulu victory of January 1879, told in the family tradition that made it famous.

Lecture / talkHistory

At Royal Geographical Society.

David Rattray's telling of the Anglo-Zulu War, delivered from the battlefields themselves, was one of the great acts of narrative history; his son Douglas continues it. This hour is Isandlwana, where a British column was destroyed in an afternoon, and it stays with the people on both sides - the decisions, the confusion, and what it cost. From £36.00.
