About

Douglas Rattray presents a one-hour lecture offering a powerful and immersive account of the Battle of Isandlwana, one of the most dramatic and devastating encounters of the Anglo-Zulu War. Continuing the storytelling tradition established by his father, David Rattray, he brings to life the human experience of the battlefield: the decisions, the courage, the confusion, and the profound cost of conflict. The lecture offers a deeply moving exploration of one of the most significant events in British and Zulu history, focusing not only on the course of the battle, but on the individuals who lived, fought, and died there. It is a non-Society event organised by Fugitives' Drift Lodge, open to all.
