Book Synopsis Allan’s Wife by : Henry Haggard
Book excerpt: Allan’s Wife is a moving account of Quatermain’s sad English childhood and (when his mother and three siblings die of fever his father emigrates to South Africa and ), robust African upbringing, and the adventures which lead to his marriage. Unlike Kipling’s often forced and exhausting knowledgeableness, Haggard’s familiarity with guns and hunting, the South African landscape, and the customs and language of Zulus, Masai, Boers etc comes over clearly and convincingly.
