Clash of Empires: Zulus versus British 1879

Clash of Empires is a major exhibition about the Zulu War running throughout July 2023 in London.
The best bit is that is free.

In this video, I visit the exhibition, handle some objects from battles like Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift and meet some fantastic experts on the war.

I have had a passion for the Anglo-Zulu wars ever since I was a little lad and my dad took me to see the film "Zulu".

Last weekend I visited the Clash of Empires exhibition and was shown around by renowned historian and author, Ian Knight.

Over the past couple of years I have produced several videos about the Zulu War of 1879 including:

My name is Chris Green and I love to share stories from British history. Not just because they are interesting but because, good or bad, they have shaped the world we live in today.

History should not be stuffy or a long list of dates or kings & queens.
So rather than lectures or Youtube animations, I tell stories that bring the past to life.

My aim is to be chat as if I were having a coffee or meal with you. Jean in Maryland, USA recently wrote: "Chris, is the history teacher I wish I had at school!"

Just for the record, I do have a history degree in Medieval & Modern history from the University of Birmingham.
