I'm with John in his assessment of Isandhlwana everything that
could be done wrong was done. One need look no further
than a battle in the same campaign Rorkes Drift. The Zulu had
the added benefit of captured rifles from Isandhlwana, yet were
decisively defeated by a properly prepared defense and well
disciplined fires with good interior battle lines.
As for Little Bighorn, ( and Isandhlwana for that matter) you never
divide your force in enemy territory without knowing his whereabouts!
