In his free time, Dirk is obsessed with finding a Civil War ironclad - the CSS Texas. He believes it is located somewhere in Africa. Their search for the ship becomes a dangerous adventure involving a beautiful woman who is a doctor with the World Health Organization, feuding warlords, desert treks on camels and potentially lethal environmental disasters of global proportions.
