Description: Race, sex, religion, frailty, noble intentions and grand failures such are the ingredients in the pioneering life of Rev. Ernest Gribble. 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.
