AN ILLUSTRATED GUIDE TO THE NON-FICTION OF RIDER HAGGARD

This is the companion volume to the Guide to the Fiction of Rider Haggard. The format is the same as far as size and spiral bindings are concerned. The contents can be seen below. As you will see from the contents there are some works that most Haggard fans just cannot get hold of and this is now probably the only source for the material.

Not interested in his non-fiction? Then you are in for a surprise. The reprinted articles on his adventures in Africa are as readable as any of hisfiction and provide much illumination into his background experiences. The article Monomotapa will fascinate whilst My Stallion Moresco can not fail to enchant.

The illustrations may not be as gaudy as the fiction titles but you will find unusual ones in colour and the letters will reveal aspects of Haggard you might not have thought about.

It is in a limited edition of 100 and costs £15 post free (UK) from Mr Roger Allen, 27 Deneholm, Whitley Bay, NE25 9AU.
