The men within these pages all had four points in common, they were courageous, they were tenacious, they were fearless and they all preferred men. Some went through prestigious schools, two began life as cabin boys and one, Stanley, was brought up in a Workhouse, where at age 9 he had witnessed every sexual perversion known to man.One may have been the first to climb Everest, another was the first to circumnavigate a continent that he himself named: Australia. One was beheaded before the walls of Timbuktu, the first white man to enter the gates, another was eaten by cannibals.T.E. Lawrence, Henry the Navigator, Emperor Hadrian, Humboldt, Mallory, the mountaineer known as Menlove, Burton, Speke and others: this is the story of their historical exploits.
