Through The Night Of 22/23 January 1879, A Small Garrison Of British Soldiers Behind A Makeshift Barricade Of Bags And Boxes Successfully Defended The Storehouse And Field Hospital At Rorke’s Drift, Against An Army Of Zulu Warriors Who Outnumbered Them By About Twenty To One. This Heroic Stand Became On Of The Most Famous Actions In The History Of The British Army, And Inspired The Epic Film Zulu! But Who Were These Men Who Made Such A Stubborn Resistance When All Seemed Lost, And What Legacy Have They Left Us? For The First Time, Details Of The Lives Of All These Men Have Been Collected Into One Reference Work, Categorised In The Counties To Which They Were Associated, In The Form Of Biographical Tributes.
