ERIES IN COMPANY WITH SIR HENRY CURTIS, BART.,
COMMANDER JOHN GOOD, R.N., AND

BY
H. RIDER HAGGARD
Author of 'She,' 'King Solomon's Mines, etc.

I Inscribe this Book of Adventure

to my son,

ARTHUR JOHN RIDER HAGGARD,

in the hope that in days to come

he, and many other boys whom I shall never know, may, in

the acts and thoughts of

ALLAN QUATERMAIN AND HIS COMPANIONS.

as herein recorded, find something

to help him and them to reach to what, with Sir Henry

Curtis, I hold to be the highest rank whereto

we can attain—the state and

dignity of

ENGLISH GENTLEMEN.
