What is Footprints of the Lion about?
As southern Africa is torn apart by a so-called white man's war, Dallas Granger-Acheson and his beloved wife, Lorna, are caught up in a conflict between fiercely proud descendants of Dutch settlers and the might of Britain's colonial empire. At stake: possession of a land rich in gold, diamonds and cheap human resources. Atrocities of the Anglo-Boer war take a terrible toll on soldiers and civilians alike. Lorna fears for her husband and sons - extrovert Cameron; brooding and secretive Torben; roguish Duncan; and Frazer, the youngest, softly spoken and artistic. She worries for her daughters - medically minded Ellie, who is never far from the front line, and headstrong Meggie, baby of the family. None are left untouched. From battlefields stained with blood and concentration camps rife with disease, to a pride of veldt lions thriving in the madness of war
