Blood on the Painted Mountain by Ron Lock provides a gripping and detailed account of two pivotal battles of the Anglo-Zulu War Hlobane and Kambula, March 1879. First published in 1995 by Greenhill Books (London) and distributed in the U.S. by Stackpole Books, this volume combines military history with fresh research, drawing from a wealth of contemporary sources to illuminate both Zulu triumph and disaster in northern Natal.

The book vividly recreates the Zulu stronghold of Hlobane (the painted mountain), where British colonial horsemen under Colonel Evelyn Wood faced disaster at Devils Pass, followed by the dramatic British stand at Kambula that turned the tide of the war. Lock analyzes the decisions, leadership, and bravery on both sides, presenting a balanced and authoritative narrative of one of the most dramatic chapters of the 1879 war.
