Résumé
Ewart Grogan, dubbed " the boldest and baddest of a bold, bad gang " of pioneering settlers in Kenya, was a gentleman adventurer possessed of magnetic charm, a formidable intellect and a near boundless ego. As a young man he fell in love with an heiress, and to prove himself worthy of her hand, he undertook the first south-to-north traverse of the African continent. This epic feat of exploration, which won him both his bride and instant celebrity, was the first great achievement of a life driven by immense ambition and a willingness to risk all on ventures deemed impossible by lesser mortals. Famed throughout the British Empire, he became one of the most brilliant - and controversial - figures of African colonial history.
