Dear All,

I've just come across 'Forgotten Battles of the Zulu War' by Adrian Greaves. To be published in Jan 12.

Details:
Hardcover: 224 pages
Publisher: Pen & Sword Military (18 Jan 2012)
ISBN-10: 1848847467
ISBN-13: 978-1848847460

Are there any battles that were fought during the campaign that are forgotten?

But I have it on very good authority that this work will, nevertheless, receive jolly good reviews ... !!!

Here's an inkling:

The penultimate paragraph does bode well, or that just might be the publisher's hype.

It looks as if Colonel AUSTRUTHER not only forgot the battle, but must have forgotten his route as well.
