Volume 2- Frontispiece of Cetshwayo ka Mpande-Preface and Introduction- xvii plus 513 pages text.
Interesting perspective and viewpoint which at times was considered controversial as Frances Colenso has sympathies towards the Zulu's and the manipulation of the war and scapegoat( Durnford) for the disaster at Isandlwana. Probably considered biased, but has pertinent comments and value to the history, research and outcome of this campaign. Very clean copies.
