Thanks. I just wanted to know, if there are any illustrations of the uniforms and weapons, or just text.

Hi Impi.
I have the book there are photographs as well as four colour plates , group photographs , half a dozen of weapons , zulu & British
all the photo's are obviously B&W . I havent read all of it , but found it informative , if anything to detailed . Certainly worth having
if you are looking for a book like this . I've ordered a book from DP& G Publication titled ' Dress Regulations Of The Army 1874
( Uniforms Worn In The Zulu War ) 22 or 23 Quid . Its being reprinted & Bound as we speak so I wont see it for a while as its coming
by surface mail , so I'm looking at 12 - 14 weeks . I've been assured It's well worth the wait from the Company ..

Hi Springbok.
To quote from a well known movie in a roundabout way '' Some Aussie ingenuity ........ with some guts behind it ''
Ref did a good job we thought !. :lol!: . All Blacks are next !. Waiting on my copy of ' Chelmesford's zulu campaign '

Arrived back this morning. Left in disgust. I gave my semis and final tickets to one of your countrymen Ive been travelling with, he was so happy he offered to let his wife have my children...............I declined.
Happy to be back.

Regards

Think I need to have a word with Pete about opening a topic called General Banter that the forum members can do just that............banter.
