The Queen of Sheba is a novel written by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. The story is set in the ancient kingdom of Sheba, which is located in present-day Yemen. The novel tells the story of Balkis, the Queen of Sheba, who is known for her beauty, wisdom, and wealth. Balkis is visited by King Solomon of Israel, who is intrigued by her reputation and seeks to learn from her. The two rulers engage in a battle of wits, with Balkis challenging Solomon to solve a riddle in order to prove his intelligence. The novel explores themes of power, love, and the clash of cultures between the two kingdoms. Aldrich's writing is vivid and descriptive, transporting the reader to the exotic lands of ancient Sheba. The Queen of Sheba is a timeless tale of intrigue and romance that will captivate readers of all ages.The thousandth part of a minute late! cried Flemming, throwing open the door.

Ned, you look like a prize pink this morning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
