Nicky is the widow of the late david Rattray. She is the owner and runs the fugitives drift guest house. Google it and you will come up with an e mail address. As a few of the members on the forum will tell you she is an extremely nice lady and will assist you in buying and shipping the book. It is well worth the purchase. |

| Im lucky i have a first edition copy. David Rattray was loaned a series of sketches by Lloyds descendants. A lot of these sketches and paintings were of ground traversed by the invading column. He spent a long time travelling the area finding where the paintings were done and photographing the same scenes. Many of the scenes are of the column in transit and in one case indicated a different route taken by the column than generally accepted. There are paintings of the dead at isandlwana, of RD and many more. Its a valuable addition to any serious collection, mine is autographed and I trully cherish it. Its not a cheap book, there again quality isnt cheap. |

In the MAA 57 and In any others books, they are again and again the same illustrations of W.Lloyd on the 24 th soldiers in campaign ...
They were published in "Boy's Own Paper." These are the same they are illustrations in the book you say?

Oh while I think, I'm not "gallic" (Possibly its my total LACK of gallic undestanding ect ...) but "brittonic" ...Ancient Brittons ancestors of the Sub-Roman - British ancestors of the Bretons and of the welsh and cornish celtes of UK...
Gallic = Gaulois...
My ancestor were in Britain, for centuries long before the first landing of Julius Caesar ...
If you said to a Welshman he is Scottish, the result would be the same ...
