Zululand

ovvero Avventure e disavventure fra i selvaggi dell'Africa Australe

Edited by Gianni Guadalupi. Texts by Allen F. Gardiner, François Le Vaillant
1993 / 232 PAGES. Language: Italian
Hunting wild beasts and White and Black men in the South African savanas: harsh Boers, prim missionaries, cynical weapon merchants and forests of assagai.
A tribe that would remain at the height of its fame as the greatest African example of warrior savagery throughout the 19th century suddenly emerged from the hazy Kafir magma: the Zulu. In the final years of the 1700s, they were a small group numbering just a few thousand, while the most important Kafir tribe was the Mthethwa, ruled by King Dingiswayo. During his youth, the king had lived among the white men of the Cape Town Colony, and had been so impressed by the British military organisation that he had attempted to copy it, dividing his warriors into impis, or disciplined regiments. Naturalist Françoise Le Vaillant and the captain of the Royal Navy tell of their 19th-century voyages among the most fearsome tribes of southern Africa.
