With His Face to the Foe
Ian Knight
In a muddy gully in the heart of Zululand, the ambitions of France’s Bonaparte dynasty came to a tragic and violent end with the death of Prince Louis Napoleon at the hands of the Zulus. It is poignant that a family, which had so much influenced in the development of Europe, should be ended in a skirmish in a remote donga in Southern Africa. The author, Ian Knight, is an acknowledged authority on the Anglo-Zulu War and has written many books on the campaign and the Zulu people. This new book tells the story of the life and death of Louis Napoleon, the last Prince Imperial. 26 back & white illustrations, 2 maps. Softback 290 pages. AUTHOR SIGNED COPIES AVAILABLE
