Allan Quatermain, elephant hunter, ventures into the lands of Africa at the end of the 19th century in search of the legendary mines of King Solomon. Hostile nature, wild beasts and warrior tribes, who do not understand the white men's obsession with precious stones, test the expedition and the very idea of civilization.

For readers of adventure classics, 19th-century fiction and stories set in Africa.
Sir Henry Rider Haggard was an English writer of adventure fiction romances set in exotic locations, predominantly Africa, and a pioneer of the lost world literary genre. He was also involved in land reform throughout the British Empire. His stories, situated at the lighter end of Victorian literature and including the eighteen Allan Quatermain stories beginning with King Solomon's Mines, continue to be popular and influential.
