This book is without a doubt the most remarkable true account ever written of adventure in Africa. It is the story of the life of George Rushby, an adventurer, ivory hunter, prospector, game rancher who immigrated to SA from Britain in search of a new life and all the curious and violent events that befell him until as a game ranger of Tanganyika. He faced and defeated the lion man-eters of the Njombe district. George Rushby vows to rid the land of these man-eaters, but he soon discovers they are unlike any lions he has ever encountered. He gets no help in his fight from the villagers who believe the killings to be the work of the local witchdoctor, a man they fear to cross - when a child Rushby loves is killed, the battle becomes personal. The reader is transported into a world of tumultuous events, many of which baffle all rational thought. George Rushy was duly referred to as "the prince of adventurers" and we join him on his travels and experiences in Africa.
