What Our Customers Say...

Description

Early Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

The second edition of this work, in the publisher's original price unclipped dust wrapper. Contemporary copies in dust wrappers are scarce.

The final published book in Haggard's Ayesha series, this work is chronologically the earliest.

The work begins when a strange manuscript in an unknown language is found among the effects of the late Professor Horace Holly. It becomes clear that Holly has convinced the immortal Ayesha, also known as She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed, to write her story.

Undated; dated 1923 - the same year as the first edition - via LibraryHub.
