"This is the first full-length biography, in any language, of the remarkable eighteenth century soldier, scientist and explorer Robert Jacob Gordon (1743-1795). It examines his early life, his explorations in southern Africa, his military service in the Cape, and concludes with his tragic suicide after the surrender of the Cape to the British in 1795".
