Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Bellow's glorious, spirited story of an eccentric American millionaire who finds a home of sorts in deepest Africa.

Synopsis:

Henderson has come to Africa on a spiritual safari, a quest for "the truth." His feats of strength, his passion for life, and, most importantly, his inadvertant "success" in bringing rain have made him a god-like figure among the tribes.
