Harley Greenoak, an experienced, resourceful up-country hunter, undertakes the guidance of a high-spirited, adventure-seeking young Englishman visiting South Africa -- a young man with an irresistible tendency towards getting into scrapes. It is Greenoak's especial business to get him out of them. How this is done, both before and after the outbreak of the Kafir War, will carry the reader through a series of stirring scenes--of fierce fighting and stubborn defence--of timely and well-nigh miraculous rescues--and even one episode of weird mystery; interwoven throughout is a love romance whose heroine is fully up to the sample of Mr. Mitford's many creations in that line.
