Aggiungi al carrelloThis substantial archive of largely unpublished correspondence - around 21,000 words written in the field - offers a vivid and unusually frank primary source for the Zulu War, only partially treated in existing historiography. Captain Fitzwilliam Elliot, youngest son of the 3rd Earl of Minto and a perceptive officer on special s…ervice, writes with sharp intelligence, admiration for the Zulu, and unguarded criticism of British command. Addressed to his mother, the well-read and formidable Nina, Countess of Minto, the letters track his movements from the aftermath of Isandlwana to the campaign's close, often with acute reflections on strategy, discipline, and morale. Elliot sailed shortly after the disasters of early 1879, joining General Crealock's coastal column. He denounces the confused state of operations, deplores the "sensational" reporting of the Prince Imperial's death, and is consistently scathing of Crealock as "an old woman" and Chelmsford for the "feebleness" of his reports. His march from Durban to Fort Chelmsford and northwards is marked by slow progress, foul weather, and disorganization. He gives sharp portraits of officers and units, praising the veteran 57th and dismissing the 88th as "a real rowdy lot of Irishmen but good to fight friend or foe". He describes kraal raids with discomfort, acknowledging the logic of destroying Zulu resources while feeling "rather a scoundrel" at the spectacle of looted food and driven captives. Yet his admiration for the Zulu is striking: "they are always so thoroughly manly never appearing angry, nor even humiliated at the loss of homes, cattle, women, every thing indeed which they possess". He reports the VC ceremony for Rorke's Drift, doubting the award to Chard, and remarks acidly that Colonel Pearson, lionized at home after the siege of Eshowe, is regarded in the field as "one of the greatest muffs this war has produced". His final letters follow the victory at Ulundi, where the "streams are now full of dead Zulus", a scene he describes with evident distress and sanitary alarm. On 12 August he writes from Ulundi to wish his family good sport on the Glorious Twelfth, and the next day notes departure "for a dart after Cetewayo, better game than grouse". The archive is accompanied by cartes-de-visite of Elliot, his parents, and John Dunn; Elliot's commission as captain; and his 1867 record of services. John Buchan, Lord Minto: A Memoir, 1924. 14 autograph letters signed (11 retaining envelopes), pale blue paper, generally 200 x 125 mm, written largely in pencil but also in ink; Record of Services printed on pale blue paper (with envelope); commission (dated 29 October 1878); 5 carte de visite (2 of the young Elliot in uniform, one each of his parents, one of John Robert Dunn). Some tears to envelopes, otherwise well preserved.

Aggiungi al carrello45 photographs of Africa (15 Zulu War) 16 (Boer War) 10 of South Africa and 4 Sudan. The album begins with a fine group of the 1872 Winchester College cricket eleven which may help identify the compiler, but he is presumably one of the Sub Lieutenants pictured in the group image which seems to date between July and September…1878. There are pictures of the naval Brigade Camp on the Tugela the Ultimation, The aftermath of the Battle of Ekowe and the cemetery there. The Active officers were present during the action.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst and only edition, unrecorded institutionally, this the only copy known. "This small pamphlet contains considerable detail on its subject: 'Compiled from information obtained from the most reliable sources, and published by direction of the Lieut.-General Commanding [Lord Chelmsford] for the information of those under his c…ommand'" (Raugh). The brief but informative notes are followed by a tabulation of the headmen detailing their father, age, regiment, tribe, principal residence, and finally remarks expanding on the notes as to the number of men they command, their relationships to Cetewayo, and status within the Zulu political and military structure. Provenance: Pencilled inscription to the front panel of the wrappers of "Major Grenfell, Deputy Assistant Adjutant General, 14.1.79", this was Francis Wallace Grenfell (1841-1925), 60th Rifles, later field-marshal lord Grenfell and commander at Suakin and Toski in the Mahdist War. Grenfell had gone out to South Africa in 1874, and was aide-de-camp to Sir Arthur Cunnynghame, commander-in-chief; he saw action at Quntana in the Xhosa War of 1878, and in the Anglo-Zulu War at Ulundi, having witnessed the aftermath of the debacle at Isandlwana, remarking that "officers and men behaved splendidly - dying back to back - and at the last rallying round the colours, not a man of the regulars attempted to escape till all was lost" (Emery, p. 106). Part of lot 421, Quentin Keynes Sale, Christie's 8 April 2004. Raugh 575. Frank Emery, The Red Soldier: Letters from the Zulu War, 1879, 1977. Octavo, pp. 6; 4 double-page tables on 5 leaves. Sewn in original printed pink paper wrappers. Some "service wear", wrappers soiled and rubbed, mildly damp cockled, back panel with vertical crease where once folded back and consequent soiling to the last blank page, contents with pale toning and lightly rippled at the edges from atmospheric damp, overall very good.
