Allan Quatermain and Mameena

Allan Quatermain, hero of King Solomon’s Mines, returns in this 1913 adventure set in Zululand, a region Haggard knew from colonial service. Mameena is a local beauty whose hand is sought by a friend of Allan’s. But she now prefers Allan himself. Mameena’s subsequent treachery proves her beauty to be only skin deep, and gets her into much trouble.
