King Solomon’s Mines(Annotated) (English Edition)

King Solomon's Mines (1885) is a popular novel by the Victorian

adventure writer and fabulist Sir H. Rider Haggard. It tells of a

search of an unexplored region of Africa by a group of adventurers

led by Allan Quatermain for the missing brother of one of the

party. It is the first English adventure novel set in Africa, and

is considered to be the genesis of the Lost World literary genre.
