Sinossi
The crushing defeat suffered by the British Army by the Zulus at Isandlwana on 22 January 1879 is by any standards a gripping and shocking story. The discovery of a complete set of diaries written by a young Royal Artillery officer who was the only survivor of his unit which lost all their guns is a very important find. Not only does this superb record tell of the dramatic events of that fateful day but it captures the atmosphere of the whole campaign and the age in which it was fought, and makes for compulsive reading.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Mint. First Thus. THE CURLING LETTERS OF THE ZULU WAR 'There Was Awful Slaughter' Edited by Adrian Greaves & Brian Best. Pen & Sword Ltd, Barnsley. 2004 First Thus. ISBN 1844151425 158pp Illustrated Trade Paperback. This copy is in mint, unread condition, bright, white, tight and square, in illustrated card covers as issued. Henry Curling was commissioned in the Royal Artillery in 1868 and was sent to South Africa in 1878. He would serve in the Zulu War and be one of five British officers who survived the defeat at Isandlwana. During this time, he maintained a correspondence with his family that provides us with an unvarnished look at the British army. Curling possessed the prejudices of a man of his time and social class. He was an indifferent soldier and never claimed to be anything more. Thus, he gives us an everyman's view of the reasons for the British defeat and the sheer awfulness of that memorable day at Isandlwana. This is an outstanding contribution to the literature of the Zulu War made all the better by the work of the knowledgeable editors. Although Curling is a likeable character, it is impossible to ignore Garnet Wolseley's view of the surviving officers. "I don't like the idea of officers escaping on horseback when their men on foot are killed". Ref LL3. Codice articolo 012880
