Set in the time of the colonization of South Africa, this is an astounding work. Marryat elucidates the behaviour of the British outside their country. In the wilderness of Africa, all the remnants of the civilized society are replaced by wild attitudes. He has also captured the spirit of wild hunting expeditions with amazing brilliance. With deep characterization and strong plot, the work monopolizes the reader's attention from the very inception.
