Hunter and trader Allan Quatermain is hired to find a missing man who vanished searching for the legendary diamond mines of King Solomon, somewhere beyond a range of mountains no white man has crossed and returned from alive. With a mysterious native companion who turns out to be far more than he seems, and two English gentlemen determined to see the journey through, Quatermain crosses desert and mountain into a lost kingdom ruled by a murderous king and guarded by a witch as old as the hills. The book that invented the lost-world adventure novel, and Quatermain, its first and greatest hero.
