She: A History of Adventure

(Amereon Ltd July 1, 1982)
A runaway bestseller on its publication in 1887, H. Rider Haggard€™s She is a Victorian thrill ride of a novel, featuring a lost African kingdom ruled by a mysterious, implacable queen; ferocious wildlife and yawning abysses; and an eerie love story that spans two thousand years. She has bewitched readers from Freud and Jung to C. S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien; in her Introduction to this Modern Library Paperback Classic€”which includes period illustrations by Maurice Greiffenhagen and Charles H. M. Kerr€”Margaret Atwood asserts that the awe-inspiring Ayesha, €œShe-who-must-be-obeyed,€ is €œa permanent feature of the human imagination.€
