King Solomon's Mines (Esprios Classics)
Sir Henry Rider Haggard KBE (1856-1925) was a Victorian writer of adventure novels set in exotic locations. After failing his army entrance exam he was sent to a private 'crammer' in London to prepare for the entrance exam for the British Foreign Office, for which he never sat. Haggard's father sent him to Africa in an unpaid position as assistant to the secretary to Lieutenant-Governor of Natal Sir Henry Bulwer. Heavily influenced by the larger-than-life adventurers he met in Colonial Africa, the great mineral wealth discovered in Africa, and the ruins of ancient lost civilizations in Africa such as Great Zimbabwe, Haggard created his Allan Quatermain adventures. Haggard also wrote about agricultural and social issues reform, in part inspired by his experiences in Africa, but also based on what he saw in Europe.

King Solomon's Mines was written by Sir H. Rider Haggard as a result of a five-shilling wager with his brother, who said that he could not write a novel half as good as Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Published in 1885 it is regarded as the progenitor of the Lost World literary genre. The dramatic story relates the exciting search for King Solomon's legendary diamond mines by a group of adventurers led by Allan Quartermain. Set in an unexplored region of Africa they are guided by an ancient map, inscribed in blood. On their tense expedition they encounter inhospitable terrain and survive a tribal war before finding the mines and escaping with some of the diamonds. The book's publication was dramatically heralded with billboards and posters around London announcing "The Most Amazing Book Ever Written". It became an immediate best seller and is now considered to be one of the best adventure novels in the EnglishKing Solomon's Mines is the classic adventure tale and is undoubtedly the book that sparked a genre of iconic fictional heroes who have continued to enthrall young and old with their sometimes improbable, but always enthralling, scrapes and feats of derring-do. It is perhaps why Indian Jones has been on our screens for over 42 years since we first encountered him in 1981. Everyone loves a good adventure story and a daring protagonist facing and conquering increasingly dangerous challenges in the pursuit of a worthy aim. This is particularly true, in our increasingly sanitised lives where you don't have to leave your armchair to experience the terrifying and death defying; sadly it's all there on a screen at the push of a button.
