What Our Customers Say...

Description

Fine Binding, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

An 1929 reprint of H. Rider Haggard's action-packed exotic adventure novel. 

First published in 1892. 

With original, unclipped dust wrapper. 

This work is one of Haggard's classic adventure novels. Narrated in the first person by Thomas Wingfield, an Englishman whose misadventures include having his mother murdered, a shipwreck, a brush with the Spanish Inquisition and slavery. Haggard would later write that Montezuma's Daughter was the last of his best work "for the rest was repetition so far as fiction was concerned".

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.
