"One of the most comprehensive accounts of the 1879 Anglo-Zulu War ever published, Brave Men's Blood is also the best illustrated. The result of years of research in Britain, South Africa, France, the USA and Australia, it includes 270 contemporary illustrations integrated with text providing a concise history of the Zulu state and the causes of the war. Pictures of Zulu as well as British commanders, personalities and soldiers appear, giving a balanced image of the war. .

Zulu and British strategy and tactics receive equal treatment. However it is the great battles themselves - Isandlwana, Rorke's Drift, Nyezane, Gingindlovu, Hlobane, Khambula and Ulundi - which take centre stage in the drama.
