Haven't come across this before. Published in 1941 as a bit of wartime propaganda I suspect. Couple of quite nice illustrations. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I have a copy on my bookshelf. I believe it covers Isandlwana as well, as it is about the 22nd January as a whole not just Rorke's Drift. Kate
