From the preface: The object of the following pages is to give a short account of the curious customs and beliefs attributed to the Zulus; to trace historically the changes in our relations with the country and the people from the time of the first settlement in Natal and also to supply some description of the military and home life of the natives.
Published during the Anglo-Zulu War to satisfy public demand for information about the Zulu and Zululand. It rapidly passed through four editions.
