There is nothing to be sorry about mate i am always learning new things all the time. I did some enquirers and there is about 170 some pages { of all the battles of the Zulu War } covering the testimonies of those who were there sounds like a gold mine of information i am waiting for them to quote me a price on all 170 some pages according to my calculations about 500 AUSD a bit pricey but i have the full series of 6 volumes of the James Stuart Archives and thats about the same price
and this sounds better.

I noticed we both live in Melbourne we must meet each other

The one folder does not contain all of the statements I am afraid, even though it is 170 odd pages. The following also include various statements and they come to at least another 170 pages. There are probably more. So if you are after a complete set of everything it's going to be pretty expensive. Good to have though!

PS If you can get hold of Harold Raugh's wonderful bibliography of the Anglo Zulu War it lists all of the relevant documents held at Kew with their reference numbers and titles.

Thanks for your help Steve

I just ordered Harold Raugh"s book and that would give me more insight in which direction i should go
i am really only interested in the eye witness reports of the battle of Isandlwana i am hoping this book will piont out which files and pages for the Isandlwana battle / campaign

Thanks again your help is most appreciated
