The later Zulu wars of the 1880s were a last-ditch resistance to
colonialism combined with bitter civil war, and their consequences
proved more devastating for the Zulu people than the famous
Anglo-Zulu war of 1879. They took place at a time of changing
fighting methods and tactics for both the British and the Zulu -
the last time the British army went on campaign wearing scarlet was
in Zululand in 1888. This book explains the nature of the diverse
Zulu, British and Boer military forces fighting in Zululand, and
the ways in which the British and the Boers fostered and exploited
divisions among the Zulu people in order to maintain colonial
control. The author's research (supported by detailed maps) traces
the complex series of wars and battles in Zululand during the
1880s. He places the campaigns in their historical context and
assesses their broader significance. This book is the sequel to
"The illustrated guide to the Anglo-Zulu War", written by the
author and Paul Thompson, which is also published by the University
of Natal Press.
