| Hello
Who has read enough about Personalities, temperaments of Sir A. T. Cunynghame and / or Sir
Garnet Wolseley (the latter not being kind to "heroes" of Isandhlwana and Rorke's Drift after the war)
to get an idea of what would have happened to the invasion of Zululand, if one of these two there had
been commander in chief in the first invasion of the zululand in January 1879 ? Cheers
Pascal

| Hello
Very well you read this book? Well if so ...
How would place operations? If Sir A. T. Cunynghame, was commander in chief for the first invasion of Zululand?
Ways less catastrophic?
Cheers

| It is very simple with, Frere could not mount the attack Zululand, unlike LC, Sir A. T. Cunynghame was an honest man, no invasion authorized by the British government, not Isandhlwana. |
