Date | Original Topic | 30th January 2003 | New Book on AZW By Martin Everett I draw your attention a new book by AZW historian Ian Knight - 'The National Army Museum Book of the Zulu War' - ISBN 0 283 07327 6 just published.
It follows the format of FM Lord Carver's book on the Boer War and draws on the extensive archives of the NAM. The 54 b&w images are mainly those of photographer Lloyd. I have not had the opportunity of reading it yet. It seems overpriced at �30 ($65 Canadian). I am sure the RDVC.COM webmaster would welcome a personal review from anyone to be add to the 'Book Reviews' section of this site.
Those wishing a copy of the book should try the NAM:
www.national-army-museum.ac.uk
I am not sure whether they have an on-line shop. But you may be interested in the Zulu War themed weekend at the NAM on 22/23 February - see under events. |
