BRITAIN AT WAR WITH THE ASANTE (Ashanti ) NATION 1823-1900 ‘The White Man’s Grave’

While the Zulu Wars are well known, the battles with the Asante people of West Africa are much less known about. Here Britain fought three major wars and two minor ones, with triumph and disasters. It’s split into three sections, starting with the first contact with the Asante nation and the disastrous battle that resulted in the British Governor being beheaded! You get maps and a photo plate section to add more detail.
