review by: brysie date: 2007-03-24 rating:

Go beyond the Zulu films
An excellent DVD by The History Zone and Narrated by Robert Powell but also included in the DVD are the Documentary, Scene Selection, Test Your Knowledge and Picture Gallery.
The Documentary gives clear knowledge with the background information, the ultimatum of the British and invasion of Zululand, the British Army including details like the weapons and uniforms, Major John Dartnell, the battle of Isandlwana-it's victory and Rorke's Drift.

It uses actors to speak the real words used in diary's and letters of the times and re-enactments / reconstruction footage and from both Zulu and Zulu Dawn films. It also includes maps and drawings with some nice photos as well. The computer maps give good detail and the interviews with the specialist to make it a very well put authoritative account of the war.
