El imperio Zulú
la sangrienta historia de una nación de guerreros africanos
Roca, Carlos (1965- )
The Zulus are the best known warrior people in all of Africa. His fame, after the creation of his Empire by the mythical King Shaka, also known as the Black Napoleon, and his subsequent conflict with Victorian England, contributed to his glory has not diminished since then. In The Zulu Empire Carlos Roca makes a detailed review of the war event that confronted the Zulu with the red coats of Queen Victoria in 1879, and that meant several clamorous defeats for the British and, for the Zulu nation, the end of their Empire . Today, almost a century and a half later, the Zulus of the 19th century continue to fascinate thousands of readers. Perhaps it is still difficult to admit that a people with primitive technology were capable of forming and maintaining an empire that would survive for several decades fighting against British colonial and racist expansionism. This is the bloody history of the most famous warrior nation in all of Africa from its formation to its military decline.
