It is a sequel to his earlier novel, Allan Quatermain, and follows the adventures of the titular character, Allan Quatermain, as he travels to the lost city of Kor in search of a legendary treasure. Along the way, he is accompanied by a group of companions, including the beautiful and mysterious Lady Ragnall, the French adventurer Henri Marais, and the native warrior Umslopogaas. Together, they face numerous challenges and dangers, including treacherous terrain, hostile tribes, and deadly creatures. As they draw closer to their goal, they must also confront the dark secrets and ancient mysteries of Kor, and the sinister forces that seek to claim the treasure for themselves. The Ancient Allan is a thrilling adventure story that combines elements of fantasy, romance, and suspense, and is sure to captivate readers of all ages.This, O Egyptian slayer of lions. You will be laid upon a bed in a little boat upon the river and another boat will be placed over you, for these boats are called the Twins, Egyptian, in such a fashion that your head and your hands will project at one end and your feet at the other. There you will be left, comfortable as a baby in its cradle, and twice every day the best of food and drink will be brought to you. Should your appetite fail, moreover, it will be my duty to revive it by pricking your eyes with the point of a knife until it returns.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
