Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

The first U.K. edition of this work, published two days after the first American edition.

A gripping adventure novel by H. Rider Haggard, following a young Englishman named Thomas Wingfield. In this riveting work Wingfield has a brush with the Spanish Inquisition, and joins a Spanish expedition to New Spain, providing an interesting commentary on the early days of colonisation in South America.

Illustrated with a frontispiece, and twenty-three plates.

Collated, complete.

Twenty-four pages of adverts to the rear.

Condition

In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, generally smart. Spne and front joint are faded. Minor bumping to the head and tail of the spine and to the extremities. Some light marks to the boards and spine. Front hinge is starting a little but remains firm. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean with a few scattered spots.

Very Good
