King Solomon's Mines
H. Rider Haggard, Richard Powers
Mass Market Paperback
(Dell Publishing Company, Jan. 1, 1961)
Still in print after 120 years! Diamonds by the million, untouched since Solomon's day, guarded by the image of Death deep in an African mountain, the only clue a crumbling map three centuries old. Charged by berserk elephants, parched by days of thirst and nights in the desert waste, chilled by mountain blasts and the stare of death, Sir Henry Curtis reaches Solomon's White Road. There, in the lurid light of a massacre, he faces the only possessor of Solomon's secret - the vulture-headed Gagool!
