Cetywayo and his White Neighbours; or, Remarks on Recent Events in Zululand, Natal, and the Transvaal.

£750 · Offered by Maggs Bros Ltd

Haggard’s first published work. Only 750 copies were printed at the father of the author’s expense. Initially only 154 copies sold and Trubner wrote to Haggard that they regarded this particular account as “a most unsatisfactory one”. Once Haggard had established his fame with “King Solomon’s Mines” (1885), the remainding copies sold readily. Scott 1.
