''The Story of the Zulus'' is a historical account of the Zulu people of Southern Africa, written by James Young Gibson and originally published in 1911. The book covers the history of the Zulus from their origins as a small tribe in the 17th century to their rise as a powerful empire under the leadership of King Shaka in the early 19th century. Gibson provides a detailed description of Zulu culture, including their social hierarchy, religious beliefs, and traditional practices. He also discusses the impact of European colonization on the Zulu people, including the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. Throughout the book, Gibson emphasizes the bravery and resilience of the Zulu people, while also acknowledging the challenges they faced in the face of colonialism and other external pressures. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Southern Africa or the Zulu people specifically.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
