The Napoleon of Africa by Phil Smart Giveaway
Blurb:
The year is 1815. With Europe reeling from
Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo, Royal Navy Commander Stephen Cowen
resigns his commission, bound for a new life in India with his family.
But fate has other plans in store.
When a violent storm strikes off the coast of East Africa, Cowen’s three children – Nathaniel, Andrew, and Beatrice – are swept overboard in a longboat and cast ashore in an uncharted world. Lost and presumed dead, they are discovered by a local tribe and brought before the newly appointed Chief of the Zulus – the formidable Shaka – to decide their fate.
Fascinated by these young strangers, Shaka spares their lives. Amid tribal warfare and political unrest, the Cowen siblings are drawn into Shaka’s inner circle, forced to confront the brutal realities of their new world while holding onto the hope of being reunited with their parents. Several years later, British explorer, Lieutenant Francis Farewell RNR, ventures into the African interior in search of a rumoured warrior king, he unexpectedly stumbles upon a prize of infinitesimal value.
Spanning continents and cultures, The Napoleon of Africa by Phil Smart is a gripping historical adventure story of survival, identity and entwining the lives of the Cowen family with one of Africa’s most legendary leaders.
