Captain Daredevil

Jean Grandier, a sixteen-year-old Frenchman who became fabulously wealthy at the age of 15 in Alaska, volunteers for the Anglo-Boer War — joining the Transvaal army which is fighting for the independence of the South African Republic from the British Empire. Creating a volunteer squad consisting of equally brave boys like himself, Jean Grandier sets off to South Africa to fight against the English invaders, heading towards incredible adventures.
