Steve, thank you for drawing attention to this epic battle. The British
decided to send a force of 5,000 men to subdue the primitive natives,
but
underestimated the fact that the Zulu's were a powerful nation in
Southern
Africa and had a highly disciplined army well lead by clever generals.
The
re-enactment of this epic battle is now occurring 125 years after the
historic defeat of the British, by a force of Zulu impi's armed only
with
spears and shields. The British had modern rifles, canon,s and rockets,
but
they were out generaled and slaughtered.

The story of this great battle, where more Victoria Crosses than ever
before
were awarded for bravery, is told on a set of five CD's by master
storyteller David Rattray. David is a master storyteller, and his
account of
this epic battle is spellbinding. Even if you have no great love of
African
affairs, you will be entranced by David's riveting story, that was
broadcast
on the SABC in serial form.

The movie ZULU can be obtained from www.amazon.com

To really live the battle, you can visit Fugitive Drift Lodge and hear
the
story for yourself, sitting under a tree overlooking the battlefield at
Isandlwana.

Africa they are celebrating with a re-enactment of the battle(s) that
took place 125 years ago and immortalised in the movies "Zulu Dawn" and
"Zulu".
