Before there was Indiana Jones there was Allan Quartermain: the original explorer, treasure hunter, and adventurer. The Quartermain books have captivated readers for more than a century, spawning more than a dozen movies and a host of imitators. In this collection of short stories we get a more personal glimpse into the life of a legend!

The tale of Allan Quatermain's second wife, Stella, is also a classic fantasy African adventure, complete with magic and ghosts, plus Haggard's trademark gripping narrative style. Other tales included are: Hunter Quatermain's Story; A Tale of Three Lions; and Long Odds.
