Stewart Edward White (1873 - 1946) was an American writer, novelist, and African big game hunter and travel writer.

Written with all the love for the open that this author is noted for and with all the charm of the insistent art that has made him a real factor in American fiction he carries his imagination to the little known parts of Africa. The vivid story shows that courage is the "commonest thing there is, only it doesn't happen to be called out in everyday life. "Simba" was just a yelling boy until magic knighted him "the lion, bravest among his companions." From that moment he knew but one law and one religion: loyalty and devotion. It is a case of hero-worship with a warm human quality hard to resist, in an African setting of magic and mystery and a world of high adventure. It is a book for the lover of big game sport and for all those who are interested in the experiences of great game hunters, for the hero is the first white man that "Simba" ever saw, and that little African child grew up to be Cunningham's gunbearer.
