    If you are interested in the Battle of Isandlwana. I would also recommend you getting the Rattray audio books. It is unbelievable to listen to David Rattray tell the story of the Day of the Dead moon. I have never heard anything as fascinating as it. Follow the link below and listen to the sound clip samples.

      The History channel version while interesting, made many excuses for the defeat, such as the Zulu warriors were all stoned on hash making them ferocious, British ammo boxes could not be opened, the Eclipse blocked out the British LOS etc. Gotta love when PBS steps in and tries to explain a battle loss without addressing the Military reasons...

      Great photos appreciated

      Great points.
