| adam_text | ZULU WARRIORS
THE BATTLE FIR THE S8HTH AFRICAN
FRINTIER
JOHN LABAND
The Anglo-Zulu War, the most famous of Britain s
late nineteenth-century campaigns of colonial
conquest, was not fought in isolation. Along with
the two
Anglo-Pedi
Wars, the Ninth Cape Frontier
War and the Northern Border War, it was one in a
brutal series of interconnected and overlapping
wars which the British waged between
1877—1879
to crush and disarm the remaining independent
black states of South Africa.
For the first time, this book weaves the story of
this cluster of conflicts into a single, connected
whole. Deftly fusing the widely differing African
and European perspectives on events, John
La band probes the fateful decisions taken by
statesmen and military commanders, analyses
military operations and their destructive impact
on combatants and civilians alike, and explores
why so many Africans chose to fight as auxiliaries
and levies alongside the British instead of against
them. Highlighting the starkly contrasting military
cultures of the antagonists, Laband shows how
prevailing notions of military honour and manhood
inspired and sustained African warriors in the
doomed defence of their homes and independence.
