The book is available here. I believe if you choose to pay in British Pounds the book is significantly less expensive. While I am one of the authors of the book, I don't receive any of the proceeds, which I assigned to co-author Kevin Elliott, who...
Here is a photo of the original K&C Zulu War Burning Farmhouse, with all of the K&C Zulus, the one 24th Foot figure K&C produced (a wounded officer standing behind a dead horse firing a pistol), the Frontline Chard & Bromhead figures mismarked K&C (there's a story about that in the K&C Book...
