Henry Rider Haggard (Gutenberg Index)
1928
H. Rider Haggard invented the adventure novel as we know it, and this index collects the entirety of his legendary output. Here are the books that gave us Allan Quatermain, the aging hunter whose quiet decency would inspire Indiana Jones. Here is "She," the story of Ayesha, the immortal queen who burned for two thousand years waiting for her lost love to return. Here are the treasure hunts through uncharted Africa, the lost cities, the archaeological mysteries that predated actual archaeology by decades. Haggard wrote at the height of the British Empire, and his works capture both its swagger and its blind spots, its hunger for the exotic and its fear of what it might find. This index serves as a guide to dozens of novels and stories: historical fiction, adventure tales, romances, and the occasional supernatural oddity. For anyone who has ever wanted to disappear into a story of ancient mysteries and daring exploration, this is the doorway.
