In The African Wars Chris Peers provides a graphic account of
several of the key campaigns fought between European powers and the
native peoples of tropical and sub-tropical Africa in the late
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His pioneering and
authoritative study describes in vivid detail the organization and
training of African warriors, their weapons, their fighting methods
and traditions, and their tactics. He concentrates on the campaigns
mounted by the most successful African armies as they struggled to
defend themselves against the European scramble for Africa.
Resistance was inconsistent, but some warlike peoples fought long
and hard - the Zulu victory over the British at Isandhlwana is the
best known but by no means the only occasion when the Africans
humiliated the colonial invaders.
