Zulu War: The police unit that fought at Isandlwana and Rorke’s Drift

The Natal Mounted Police suffered terrible casualties at the Battle of Isandlwana fighting in the donga alongside Colonel Durnford. 

In today's episode of the Redcoat History Podcast Cam Simpson joins us once more to talk about the history of the unit and its fascinating men. He calls them the Blue-blood troopers, as a number were sons of generals and senior figures from across the empire. 

Cam's new book on the subject is out today and you can purchase it at Amazon (link below):
