The Ivory Child is a novel written by H. Rider Haggard, first published in 1916. The story follows the adventures of Allan Quatermain, a famous adventurer and hunter, as he travels to the African continent in search of a missing young woman named Marie Marais. Accompanied by his friend, Sir Henry Curtis, and a Zulu warrior named Umslopogaas, Quatermain soon finds himself embroiled in a dangerous quest to locate the fabled Ivory Child, a legendary object said to possess great power and wealth. Along the way, they encounter a variety of obstacles and adversaries, including hostile tribes, treacherous terrain, and a powerful sorcerer who seeks the Ivory Child for his own nefarious purposes. As they journey deeper into the heart of Africa, Quatermain and his companions must use all their skills and wits to survive and succeed in their mission. The Ivory Child is a thrilling and action-packed adventure story that showcases Haggard's talent for vividly depicting exotic locales and exciting exploits.Look here, Mr. Quatermain, you were always a bit of a sportsman, and I'll make you an offer. If I kill more birds than you do to-day, you shall promise to hold your tongue about my affairs in South Africa; and if you kill more than I do, you shall still hold your tongue, but I will pay you that ����250 and interest for six years.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
