The Allan Quatermain stories by H. Rider Haggard chronicle the thrilling exploits of the British explorer Allan Quatermain in Africa. In the titular novel, Quatermain, grieving his son's death, agrees to undertake a final expedition to discover a fabled lost civilization. Joined by familiar characters like Sir Henry Curtis and Captain Good, he faces perilous landscapes, tribal conflicts, and ancient mysteries. The stories blend action, romance, and supernatural elements, offering a window into Victorian adventure fiction. While reflecting colonial-era attitudes, they remain influential in the development of the lost world genre and early adventure literature.
