Allan Quatermain is a hunter. Lions, elephants, antelope. Fearless, he is the best big-game hunter in South Africa. And, he is about to embark on the most dangerous hunt of his career. His new employers, Sir Henry Curtis and Captain John Good, have a map-drawn by a dying Portuguese prospector. It reveals a route across the great desert, past a fearsome range of mountain, to the greatest treasure in all Africa-the lost diamond mines of King Solomon himself! Inspired by true adventures, King Solomon's Mines is the unsurpassed classic of a journey into the unknown heart of the Dark Continent.
