I hope you enjoy reading the new edition. You are right about the first edition's scarcity - only 50 copies were published.

Thank for the news - I need every sale I can get! Donations to libraries are always worth it.

I have had a copy of this little gem for a number of years. It is a soft-covered publication in magazine format, of only 45 pages. It was published in 1987 by the Zulu Study Group, of which Ian Knight ...

Zululand at War sold some months ago on Antiquarian Auctions for US$105.00 plus p & p. Last week they sold Invasion of Zululand for US$200.00 plus p & p. Peter is right, as usual: pric ...

I had not known that there was any delay in Booth's award of the Victoria Cross. There is certainly no mention of such in my own documentation relating to the award. (The National Archives, W ...
