Nathaniel Isaacs (1808–1872) was an English adventurer who played a part in the history of Natal, South Africa. He wrote a book spread over two volumes (whose accuracy is now disputed) called "Travels and Adventures in Eastern Africa".〔Isaacs – Vol 1〕〔Isaacs – Vol II〕 This book subsequently became one of the principal sources quoted by writers of the History of Natal including Morris (''The Washing of the Spears: The Rise and Fall of the Zulu Nation''), Ritter (''Shaka Zulu: The Rise of the Zulu Empire'') and Bulpin (''Natal and the Zulu Country''). == Early life == Isaacs was born in Canterbury, England into a Jewish family. His father was a merchant and resident of Chatham and his mother was Lenie Solomon, daughter of Nathaniel Solomon of Margate and Phoebe Mitz who came from the Netherlands. After his father died in 1822, he joined his maternal uncle, Saul Solomon, a merchant based on the island of St. Helena. In June 1825 he persuaded his uncle to allow him to accompany Lieutenant King, captain of the brig ''The Mary'' to South Africa in the capacity of the captain's "companion". After the brig had discharged its cargoes in Cape Town, King sailed for Port Natal to search for the adventurers Francis Farewell, an East India merchant, and Francis Fynn, a physician, from whom nothing had been heard for eighteen months.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Nathaniel Isaacs Biography )〕〔Isaacs Vol 1, Introduction – pg xv – xx〕
