Overview

Allan Quatermain is the protagonist of H. Rider Haggard's 1885 novel King Solomon's Mines, its one sequel Allan Quatermain, twelve prequel novels and four prequel short stories, totalling eighteen works. The real-life adventures of Frederick Selous, the British big game hunter and explorer of Africa, inspired Haggard to create the Allan Quatermain character. Haggard was also heavily influenced by other larger-than-life adventurers whom he later met in Africa, most notably American Scout Frederick Russell Burnham. After the battle ended, Allan's body is brought to ZuVendis, Africa, and buried in an existing grave dating from the time he originally faked his death.
