Impi: Autopsy of the Zulu Killing Ground (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798177730325)

On January 22, 1879, under a partial eclipse at sandwana, twenty thousand Zulu warriors closed a trap that destroyed a British column in a single afternoon.

You have been told this story before: a savage horde, a lone genius named Shaka, a noble redcoat last stand. All of it is wrong.

IMPI drags you into the grass to hear oxhide shields drumming, smell blood on the blade, and feel the horns of the buffalo close. This isn't the story of a massacre. It's the autopsy of a killing machine.
