ROBERT B EDGERTON "LIKE LIONS THEY FOUGHT" FIRST EDITION, EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH COMPLETE INTACT DUSTJACKET
This compact, well-written history focuses on the 1879 battles between British troops and Zulu warriors. Edgerton (Anthropology, Psychiatry/UCLA) succeeds in two important ways: by capturing the flow of battle from both the British and the Zulu sides (the latter filled-in from previously untranslated Zulu accounts), and by providing lively sociological and anthropological background on the training, motives, and perceptions of battle on both sides--beginning with the Zulu victory at Isandlwana (a great, bloody defeat for the British) and concluding with the defeat of the Zulus and their king, Cetshwayo, at Ulundi.
