  • "It was only then that Jake realized that he still carried a full bottle of Scrubbs Ammonia in his hand. The lion came bounding swiftly through the shallow stagnant pool towards him. Despite the wounds, it flowed with lithe and sinuous menace. It was so close that he could see each stuff white whisker in the curled upper lip and hear the rattle of air in its throat. He let it come on, for to turn and run was suicide. At the last moment he reared back like a baseball pitcher and hurled the bottle."
  • "Jake Barton, tough, hard-driving engineer from Texas, Vicky Chambers, an American journalist, and Gareth Swales, an old-Etonian gunrunner, down on his luck, join forces in aiding the beleaugered ethiopians in their brave but hopeless effort to defend their country against the invading Italians."@en
  • "Africa, in 1935, is on the brink of war with Italy. A Texan with a gift for resurrecting rundown war vehicles teams with a wily and entrepreneurial Englishman in an unlikely match that leads to much more than a business deal."
  • "The year is 1935, shorty before WWII. The "Wolf of Rome," Italy's army under Mussolini, is poised to invade Ethiopia, whose army is not only illequipped, but also severly outnumbered. Desperate to save his troubled land, Emperor Haile Selassie enlists American Jake Barton and Englishman Gareth Swales, two risk-takers who both share a taste for danger and the thrill of adventure."@en
