Montezuma's Daughter is a historical fiction novel written by H. Rider Haggard, first published in 1893. The story is set in 16th century Mexico during the time of the Spanish conquest. The protagonist is a young Englishman named Thomas Wingfield, who travels to Mexico to find his father, who had disappeared years ago. Along the way, he meets a beautiful Aztec princess named Otomie, who is Montezuma's daughter. Thomas falls in love with Otomie and becomes embroiled in the conflict between the Aztecs and the Spanish. The novel is filled with action, adventure, romance, and historical detail, and explores themes of love, loyalty, and betrayal. Montezuma's Daughter is considered one of Haggard's most popular and enduring works.Cuitlahua was crowned Emperor of the Aztecs in succession to his brother Montezuma, while I lay sick with the wound given me by the sword of de Garcia, and also with that which I had received on the altar of sacrifice.
