About This Item
London: Longmans, Green, and Co. , 1904. First edition. Cloth. Very Good. 7.5" by 5". None. A first UK edition of this emotional novel by prolific Victorian writer H. Rider Haggard. First edition in the UK unusually preceded by the US edition three months earlier. This work tells the interwoven tales of three people living in a coastal area of England. It is a more emotionally charged novel than the typical adventures that Haggard is known for. Written by Sir Henry Rider Haggard, an English writer of adventure fiction romances set in exotic locations and a pioneer of the lost world literary genre. In the original full blue cloth binding. Externally, smart with light bumping to the extremities. Minor fading to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with light scattered spotting. Very Good
