This work rightfully belongs to the golden fund of adventure literature. The novel is published worldwide, has been adapted for the screen multiple times, and is a hallmark of the outstanding English writer. 'The Headless Horseman' was written by Mayne Reid under the impression of his adventures in America. In the 1840s and 1850s, he traveled extensively across the USA, took on various jobs - from actor and teacher to newspaper deliveryman, conversed with people, and even participated in the Mexican War. The action of the novel 'The Headless Horseman' unfolds in those same years in the border areas of Texas. A strong romantic line - the love of a rich plantation owner's daughter for a poor mustang hunter - intertwines with a mystical story about a mysterious headless horseman.
