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.
