Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Scarce

The scarce first US edition of this work, published four months prior to the UK first edition, which was retitled to add 'The' to the beginning of the title.

McKay [71].

This posthumously published Allan Quartermain novel follows Allan as he discovers a village in the middle of the Dark Continent, ruled by a large pale man with strange knowledge of the future.

Written by Sir Henry Rider Haggard, an English writer of adventure fiction romances set in exotic locations and a pioneer of the lost world literary genre.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Boards bright, with light shelf wear to back strip tail, and with back strip lightly age toned. Internally, binding lightly strained to centre, but generally firmly held. Pages lightly age toned, with only the odd spot.

Very Good Indeed
