Race, sex, religion, human frailty, noble intentions and grand failures - such were the ingredients in the pioneering life of Rev. Ernest Gribble. Dr Christine Halse knows this life well, having researched and interviewed extensively to uncover the Gribble tale. This is the story of that terribly wild man, hailed as the Anglican church's first successful missionary to the Aborigines, and his descent into disgrace.
