After the treasure-hunt of King Solomon’s Mines, Sir Henry Curtis entertains friends at his Yorkshire house, and old Allan Quatermain is persuaded to tell a hunting story. He recalls a night in the African bush with his Zulu servant Mashune, a wounded buffalo, and the hunger and danger that followed, told in his dry, modest voice.
A short, brisk Quatermain adventure for readers who already know Haggard’s hunter, with the colonial outlook of 1885. Download the free EPUB.
