Obscure Battles BLOG

I do not do this very often, but I wanted to recommend the simply outstanding Obscure Battles BLOG by Jeff Berry... past posts cover the American Civil War, Napoleonic Wars, 7 years War, etc.. this month he has gone in a different direction and highlighted the battle of Gqokli Hill which took place in 1818 between Shaka and his 5000 Zulus and the 12,000 Ndwandwes under Nomahlanjana.

Simply outstanding research and presentation.  From the eye candy of his maps, to the description of events often with his admittedly biased commentary, you will not be disappointed.
