Description
Early Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce, With Dustwrapper
A 12th thousand edition of this work.
Undated, but probably published in 1929 according to institutional sources. Originally published in 1927.
Written by H. Rider Haggard, this work is a novel and part of a series of works by the writer featuring a recurring character Allan Quartermain. The idea for this series was given to Haggard by Rudyard Kipling. The story recounts Quartermain's past life regression to a Stone Age ancestor and the various adventures involved.
Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925) was an English author who specialised in adventure fiction set in exotic locations, primarily Africa. He was a pioneer of the lost world literary genre.
