See the literature forum for a serialisation of this famous and early novel which inspired so many of the early explorers and hunters in "Deepest Darkest Africa".

"King Solomon's Mines" by H. Rider Haggard

moved temporarily to the African forum - link may not work ???

My fingers are too sore from typing to tell right now.

Tell you later when I've finished it.

Coupled with the Baker story on Boar Hunting the little fingers on your little hands muyst be about ready to fall off. Very interesting

Is the story NitroX copied by Baker still avaliable? I read Haggard years ago, great story! Thanks NitroX for posting it for others. It still amazes me how many people these days haven't read the old literature. I have had to explain the movie "The League of Extraordinary Gentleman" to a number of friends because they were totally unfamiliar with the characters.
