Cloth. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Lord Chelmsford's Zululand Campaign. 1878-1879. Lightened spine to D/J. Thousands of documents relating to Chelmsford's direction of the Anglo-Zulu War survive. The 116 documents selected for this volume all emante from the Gene…ral himself, rather than his many correspondents. Chelmsford thus speaks for himself, exposing his plans, decisions, problems and disputes to the closes critical assessment. The documents cover all key aspects of his conduct of the campaign including his strategic planning, tactical intentions, logisitical problems, inadequate field intelligence, and conflicts with both local civil authorites and his superiors in England. The inescapable conclusion must be that there was much in Chelmsford's generalship to criticise, and little to command. Frontispiece. 314 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
