About this book

The Washing of the Spears by Morris, Donald R.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780306808661.

Filled with colorful characters, dramatic battles like Isandhlwana and Rorkes Drift, and an inexorable narrative momentum, this unsurpassed history details the sixty-year existence of the worlds mightiest African empire—from its brutal formation and zenith under the military genius Shaka (1787–1828), through its inevitable collision with white expansionism, to its dissolution under Cetshwayo in the Zulu War of 1879.
