Visionary empire-builder, ultimate Kipling hero, the carrier -- for England -- of "the white man's burden," Rhodes in his time was revered in England. Who else had a huge country named after him? His life-long dream was the world federation of states, cessation of wars and world government, under British rule. In the perspective of the turbulent century that passed since, he appears a giant with toppled dreams. This is his story.
