From the first clubs and spears of early humanity to the “smart” bombs and laser technology of today, the history of mankind has been inextricably bound up with the twin stories of war and the weaponry used to wage it. To explore the history of weaponry is to explore a central aspect of human history. With its in-depth look at the development of weaponry from prehistory to the present day, The Historical Atlas of Weaponry is an invaluable reference source for anyone interested in the evolution of empires, large and small, and covers all the significant landmarks in weaponry development. The book is organized chronologically, starting with a chapter examining the first weapons ever created by man and ending with a chapter looking at the high-tech killing machines of today. Between these start and end points, there are chapters covering the whole history of weaponry, including medieval developments, the age of gunpowder, and mobile warfare. There are also individual chapters looking at the weaponry developed and deployed in World War I and World War II. Written in an authoritative yet readable style, The Historical Atlas of Weaponry is a comprehensive guide to the tools of war and armed conflict.

Hardcover with laminated boards. Written by John Laband, published by University of Natal Press, 2001. 140 pages. Tracked postage is R60.00. The Later Zulu wars of the 1880s were a last-ditch resistance to colonialism combined with bitter civil war, and their consequences proved more devastating for the Zulu people than the famous Anglo-Zulu war of 1879.  They took place at a time of changing fighting methods and tactics for both the British and the Zulu - the last time the British Army went on campaign wearing scarlet was in Zululand in 1888. This book explains the nature of the diverse Zulu, British and Boer military forces fighting in Zululand, and the ways in which the British and the Boers fostered and exploited divisions among the Zulu people in order to maintain colonial control. The author's research (supported by detailed maps) traces the complex series of wars and battles in Zululand during the 1880s. He places the campaigns in their historical context and assesses their broader significance.
