"Black Africans made up more than half of the British army that invaded Zululand in January of 1879 and went on to fight the storied battles o Isandlwana, Rorke's Drift and Ulundi". The bulk of the large African component however was comprised of the Natal Native Contingent (NNC).

Thompson has recounted their service over the whole scope of war.
