The fearless hunter Allan Quatermain, nicknamed Macumazan, which means "the man who rises after midnight," never loved the dampness and strictness of his native England, preferring the hot dusty expanse of the African veld; he was drawn to the unexplored, danger-filled lands of the Dark Continent, where simple and cruel people live, like all children of nature, where herds of wild buffalo roam and fierce lions roar at night. This life was to Quatermain's liking — the beloved hero of the remarkable writer Henry Rider Haggard, who dedicated many books to the brave hunter.
This edition includes Haggard's most popular novel in the world, "The Mines of King Solomon," as well as stories and tales united by a common hero — Allan Quatermain. The book is illustrated with magnificent graphics by well-known contemporary artists of the author.
