About this ebook

The saga that led to the decline of the British Empire, especially in colonial Africa. Based on true events. A call to war! The British, in command of South Africa, decide the best course of action is to goad the non-compliant Zulus into a battle. The Zulus, armed with only spears would have no chance against the heavily armed British force, representing the best of the world's greatest empire. Arrogance has its price as the British will soon find out as the two prepare for battle. In addition to the comic story, throughout the series background information on the Zulu's, the birth of South Africa, and the rise of Shaka-Zulu is featured in text articles.


THIS ISSUE: The first battle between the Zulus and the British find that the British are woefully unprepared. In the battle of Isandhlwana, the Zulus destroy the main army and massacre and mutilate the fallen British. Considered one of the worst defeats in English history, the battle was labeled by some as the beginning of the end of the British Empire as a global superpower.


"...a well-written recounting of the Zulu War of 1879...gets behind the story to analyze its root causes, the battles of the war, and its long-lasting effects." - Atomic Avenue
