Bierman, John
Dark Safari; the Life Behind the Legend of Henry Morton Stanley
New York: Knopf. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1990. Stated First Edition. Hardcover. 039422180X . Front flap creased slight edge wear to book & DJ ; DJ in Mylar unclipped bright solid book ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 401 pages; A savagely deprived childhood rendered John Rowlands something of an emotional cripple yet this unloved illegitimate son of a housemaid became Sir Henry Morton Stanley the celebrated African explorer. Evasion suppression and falsification were his defenses against the abandonment rejection and betrayal that haunted his life--and it is the reality behind these Walter Mitty-like defenses that is the subject of this stimulating well-documented biography. Until he "discovered" Livingstone in 1871 Stanley was essentially a ruthless driven reporter on the trail of a scoop but after their meeting he became a searcher for rivers and mountains lakes and deserts in a quest for self-esteem. This is an epic tale of epic journeys by a swaggering little man who at his worst writes Bierman was "a bully a braggart a hypocrite and a liar" and at his best was "steadfast brave enduring resourceful and an inspired leader." .

Bohemian adventurer compulsive Don Juan he managed to the astonishment of virtually everyone to be elected President of France in 1848 and within three years staged the coup d'etat that made him Emperor. The Second Empire was one of the most glittering and licentious epochs in French history--a time when the music of Offenbach the gowns of Worth and the splendid new boulevards of Haussman brought Paris world renown as the City of Light. But behind the imperial glitter Napoleon's private life was the scandal of Europe. As Emperor Louis was the arbiter of the continent and led his country into four major wars. In the techniques he used to gain power he anticipated the fascist dictators of the 1920s and '30s while virtually inventing politics-as-theatre foreshadowing modern-day democratic politicians.
