Rorke's Drift 1879:Pinned like rats in a hole by Ian Knight

Rorke's Drift 1879:Pinned like rats in a hole by Ian Knight is one of the Osprey publications. This one is on the battle where the most Victoria Crosses were handed out. It is one of the legendary battles in Victorian imperial history. With many myths growing up around it. Knight does an excellent job dispelling many of these misperceptions about the battle and campaign. The Zulu attacked a British outpost and were eventually repulsed. Since it's an Osprey it's relatively short with pictures and 3D diagrams. Simply a must have if you're interested in the battle.
