Leaps of legacy or guide to Nigerian politics?

Leon Edel, the biographer of the great American novelist, Henry James, recalled the latter’s reflection on biography to the effect that biography is “a questionable honour to men of tranquillity,” that furnish poor materials unless they were involved in great public events. The subject of The Leaps of Legacy, His Majesty, King Edmund Maduabebe Daukoru, has traversed great times, that are worthy of a biographer’s endeavour.
