Description

[Source - Henry Fagan for FHYA, 2021: A digitised copy of Magema Fuze's book. The book recounts the history of the Zulu kingdom as recalled by Magema Fuze, based on his own vast knowledge and experience, from the time of Shaka until the death of Dinuzulu in 1913. A further section contains ethnographical descriptions of the people of the Zulu kingdom and their social practices. A third section contains information on the origins of black people in south-east Africa. It was the first written history of the Zulu kingdom by an African.]
