"Finished" comprises the third book in H. Rider Haggard's so-called Zulu trilogy, the first two novels being "Marie" and "Child of Storm." This is a magnificent set of books that deals with the downfall of the Zulu people, as personally witnessed by Allan Quatermain, the hero of 14 of Haggard's nove
How the last Zulu king and his Zulu kingdom was defeated by the English army.
Previous Zulu kings killed witch Zikali's family members & his whole tribe. So Zikali wanted a revenge on the Zulu kingdom. Zikali suggested the Zulu king, his advisors, generals to attack the English army rather sending pe
