Maiwas Revenge

After a day's worth of shooting at his estate, legendary hunter Allan Quatermain settles down, lights a pipe, and tells his companions of a journey he undertook in the wilds of Africa. On expedition, Quatermain, while searching for ivory, meets Maiwa, a runaway African princess who is intent on avenging her child. She also carries a desperate note from an old friend, once thought dead. Braving buffalo, rhinos, elephants, and rivaling tribes, Quatermain finds himself in the middle of a plot to wage war on the notorious African chief Wambe.
H. Rider Haggard (died 1925) was a major literary figure of the early 20th century. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. Adventure literature of the 19th and early 20th centuries captured the imagination of a reading public hungry for tales of exploration, danger, and heroism. Maiwas Revenge belongs to this tradition of gripping narratives that transported readers beyond the boundaries of their everyday lives.
