Henry Charles Harford, 'The Beetle Collector'. "Henry Charles Harford was my friend"-David Rattray FRGS. Entomologist and noted Zulu War Lecturer.The Royal Geographic Society, London 2006.

Henry Charles Harford was an entomologist and a vibrant personality of the Anglo Zulu War. Harford had always fascinated David Rattray, the world famous lecturer on the Anglo Zulu War of 1879 and himself a qualified entomologist.David gave countless world-wide presentations and always wove the story of 'Charlie Harford the beetle collector' into his entralling lectures. David was especially excited when the new material for this book was discovered and he was delighted to hold and present Harford's medal to his audience during his final Royal Geographical Society lecture in London-just four months before his untimely death.
