The
defeat at Isandlwana, where 24000 Zulu impis almost wiped out an
entire regiment in less than an hour, shook the British establishment
to its very foundations. South Africa’s most famous battle
however was at Rorke’s Drift where less than 130 British soldiers
held off 4000 Zulus for twelve hours. The Victoria Cross was awarded
to eleven courageous men and the story of this epic struggle was
captured forever in ZULU, the unforgettable and immensely popular
movie starring Michael Caine. |
