Henderson the Rain King

In his search for identity, a middle-aged American millionaire travels to a remote area of Africa, where he encounters a tribe of natives. Henderson's awesome feats of strength and his unbridled passion for life win him the admiration of the tribe–but it is his gift for making rain that turns him from mere hero into messiah. A hilarious, often ribald story, Henderson the Rain King is both an examination of the forces that drive a man through life and an example of how one man's beneficial actions can bring harm to others.
