书籍简介/Book Description
祖鲁战争（Anglo-Zulu War）发生于1879年，是大英帝国与南非的祖鲁王国之间爆发的大规模军事战争，也称作英祖战争。在一开始，战争就因几起大规模流血冲突而引起人们的注意，也因此成为英国在那一地区殖民主义统治的标志性事件。
在祖鲁首领拒绝英军对其的“最后通牒”后，英国切尔姆斯福德勋爵率领军队渡过布法罗河和图盖拉河，向祖鲁王国大举进攻。祖鲁战争是冷兵器和枪炮之间的激烈碰撞，战争初期祖鲁人曾重创过英军，但随后逐渐落入下风，这场战争也终结了祖鲁作为独立国家的历史。
Saul David的《祖鲁战争：1879年的英雄主义与悲剧》是对19世纪极具争议性和残酷的英帝国冲突的一次精彩回顾。
祖鲁战争的真实故事是切尔姆斯福德勋爵在英国政府不知情的情况下入侵祖鲁兰的欺骗、不名誉、无能和失职的一场战争。但它并没有按计划进行，而是产生了许多政治影响。Saul David利用英国和南非档案馆的新材料，揭开了这场最肮脏的帝国战争的盖子，并得出了一些令人震惊的新结论。
Saul David's Zulu: The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879 is a fascinating look at the most controversial and brutal British imperial conflict of the nineteenth century.
The real story of the Anglo-Zulu war was one of deception, dishonour, incompetence and dereliction of duty by Lord Chelmsford who invaded Zululand without the knowledge of the British Government. But it did not go to plan and there were many political repercussions. Using new material from archives in Britain and South Africa, Saul David blows the lid on this most sordid of imperial wars and comes to a number of startling new conclusions.
'Saul David's brilliant and magisterial account must now be regarded as the definitive history of the Zulu War' Frank McLynn, Literary Review
'This meticulously detailed book...give[s] a fully rounded and judicious account of this dismal conflict Guardian
'Fascinating, thrilling, convincing... reads like a novel' Economist
