Prince Imperial Death Story By Alfred Aylward
Comandant Alfred Aylward recounts the 1879 death of the Prince Imperial at Pietermaritzburg. He disputes a Marine eyewitness and argues about Careys detachment, Zulus, and the open ground leading to the fatal volley. He links arms dealing and policy to the broader Zulu War and colonial motives.
