It is said that Charles George Dennison saw more active service in the British nineteenth-century colonial wars for southern Africa than any other man. Considered a frontiersman equal in standing to any legendary figure of the American West, he rose from an ordinary trooper to a British officer whose advice was sought by top British officials of the day. Sadly, the much wounded and decorated hero died in obscurity, buried in a forgotten grave in what is now Zimbabwe. This book offers the first complete version of Dennison's journal ever published.
