'The most complete account yet written of the stirring and often tragic saga of the Zulu kings, it marks a distinct departure from earlier books on the subject. It adopts a 'Zulu' perspective which shows there has always been a Zulu king since the time of Shaka and counteracts the view that the Zulu royal line ended with King Cetshwayo as a result of the British conquest during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. Instead, as Dr Ballard points out, the enduring reality of Zulu nationalism and ethnic consciousness has always been symbolised and embodied in the institution of the monarchy. The House of Shaka gives a crisp, concise biography of each of the eight Zulu kings from Shaka.' Editor's Note
