De grote kracht zit hem erin dat de oorlog door zijn werk letterlijk een Vlaamse stem en gezicht krijgt. Volksmenners, slachtoffers, collaborateurs, verzetslui ...

Shakespear provides detailed descriptions based on his personal encounters in chapters like Hog-Hunting, The Man-Eater, Tiger-Shooting, The Panther, The Bear, Bears and Buffalos, Wild Elephants, and The Buffalo and the Bison.

So he drifted from one occupation to another after the war, never really settling down. It seemed he had to be forever on the move. Until he met Eva Gray, and even that meeting was to lead in the end to tragedy.
