Clarke (S.) ZULULAND AT WAR 1879 Square 4to (270 x 270 mm) The conduct of the Anglo-Zulu War. First Series, number 10: 300 pages, frontispiece, 4 maps, 70 plates - some in colour, blue cloth, a very good copy in the dust jacket. `Inadequacies of the British Army had been revealed in the Crimean War and reforms had supposedly been introduced to remedy the defects, but the Anglo-Zulu War showed clearly that many shortcomings still remained, especially in the sphere of transport and supply. The letters in this volume, all previously unpublished, reveal this struggle for change and the opposing conservative and reforming elements within the army. Written mostly by officers serving in Zululand, the texts are freely expressed, without fear of censorship. Most are addressed to the chief of the intelligence department; others are by members of the British Royal Familiy to the governor of the Cape Colony, Sir Bartle Frere. New facts emerge in these frank and often highly critical letters, while also published are the proceedings of the court martial which took place as a result of the death of the Prince Imperial and which were subject to an embargo for a hundred years.` Editor’s note.

James Morison Shaw Lambie was born in Wallsend on 25th September 1908. He was the only son of Robert Dickie Lambie and Anne Dale Lambie, and had for sisters. He was educated at Newcastle Preparatory School then Durham School, where he played in the 1st rugby 15, and rowed in the 1st eight. On leaving school he joined the family business, R. D. Lambie, of Third St, Wallsend, which manufactured ships lifeboats and other commercial craft. In 1936 he married Helen Thomson Ogilvie and had two sons. In the years before the war he captained Wallsend RFC and held a commission in the Territorial Army (Royal Engineers). Although held to be in a ‘reserved occupation’ he went off to France as a Lieutenant in the RE with the British Expeditionary Force. His unit initially layed down temporary landing strips for fighter aircraft, but later, in 1940, demolished bridges in order to hinder the German advance on Dunkirk and so allow as many British troops as possible to escape. Eventually he left Dunkirk on perhaps the last trawler to leave before the enemy arrived. On arriving home, he found that his father’s health was failing and it was decided that he was needed to run the business (supplying ships’ lifeboats to the many shipyards throughout the UK). With the aid of the local MP and the Admiralty his reserved occupation status was upheld and he spent the remainder of the war running the company and played an increasing part in the local Home Guard, being promoted to Major. In the early years after the war, Lambie (Wallsend) Ltd thrived under his leadership, serving the UK shipbuilding industry and exporting around the world. He developed the company to use glass fibre technology in the production of lifeboats and other commercial craft, but with the dimunition of the UK and other European shipbuilding industries, the company was sold in 1972. He died in March 1978.
