Sobre este artículo
London: Tom Stacey, 1971. Hardback. Very Good/Very Good Indeed. 9" by 5.5". None. This novel by Henry Rider Haggard delves into the past lives of his recurring protagonist Allan Quartermain. Found in the price clipped dust wrapper. Featuring Henry Rider Haggard's recurring hero, this novel centres around the paste lives of Allan Quartermain. Found in the price clipped dust wrapper. Situated at the lighter end of Victorian literature, Henry Rider Haggard wrote eighteen adventure-romances featuring Allan Quartermain a professional big game hunter and adventurer. The character has been portrayed on screen by Richard Chamberlain, Sean Connery and Patrick Swayze. In the publisher's original red hard board binding, found in the price clipped dust wrapper. Externally, smart, with some bumping to the tail of the spine, and some light rubbing to the joints. With some light edgewear to the wrap. Internally, firmly bound. Aside from some light foxing to the endpapers, pages are bright and clean. Very Good
Sinopsis
Now I, Allan Quatermain, come to the weirdest (with one or two exceptions perhaps) of all the experiences which it has amused me to employ my idle hours in recording here in a strange land, for after all England is strange to me. I grow elderly. I have, as I suppose, passed the period of enterprise and adventure and I should be well satisfied with the lot that Fate has given to my unworthy self.
