Welcome to the Anglo Zulu War Historical Society web site.
The Anglo Zulu War of 1879 is one of the extraordinary periods of Victorian History. Although many people are aware of the battle of Rorkes Drift - made famous by the film "Zulu" starring Stanley Baker and Michael Caine - they are not as aware of the Battle of Isandlwana, fought earlier on the same day, 22nd January 1879, or that the war brought an end to the Napoleonic dynasty with the death of the Prince Imperial, and brought down the British Government. Who were these Zulus, and why were we fighting them?
The Anglo Zulu War Historical Society has been formed by a small group of experts and historians to educate, entertain, enlighten and encourage students past, present and future, and to further their interest in that most fascinating of Victorian campaigns, the Anglo Zulu War of 1879.
