About Haggard:
Henry Rider Haggard was born at Bradenham, Norfolk, to Sir William
Meybohm Rider Haggard, a barrister, and Ella Doveton, an author and
poet. He was the eighth of ten children. He was initially sent to Garsington Rectory in Oxfordshire to study under the Reverend H.J. Graham
but, unlike his older brothers who graduated from various Public
Schools, he ended up attending Ipswich Grammar School. This was because his father, who regarded him as somebody who was not going to
amount to much, could no longer afford to maintain his expensive
private education. After failing his army entrance exam he was sent to a
private 『crammer』 in London to prepare for the entrance exam for the
British Foreign Office, which in the end he never sat. Instead Haggard’s
father sent him to Africa in an unpaid position as assistant to the secretary to the Lieutenant-Governor of Natal, Sir Henry Bulwer. It was in this
role that Haggard was present in Pretoria for the official announcement
of the British annexation of the Boer Republic of the Transvaal. In fact,
Haggard raised the Union Flag and was forced to read out much of the
proclamation following the loss of voice of the official originally entrusted with the duty. As a young man, Haggard fell deeply in love with Lilith Jackson, whom he intended to marry once he obtained paid employment in South Africa. In 1878 he became Registrar of the High Court in
the Transvaal, but when he sent his father a letter telling him that he intended to return to England in order to marry Lilith Jackson his father
replied that he forbade it until he had made a career for himself. In 1879
he heard that Lilith had married someone else. When he eventually returned to England he married a friend of his sister, Mariana Louisa Margitson and brought her back to Africa. Later they had a son named Jock
(who died of measles at the age of 10) and three daughters. Returning
again to England in 1882, the couple settled in Ditchingham, Norfolk.
Later he lived in Kessingland and had connections with the church in
Bungay, Suffolk. He turned to the study of law and was called to the bar
in 1884. His practice of law was somewhat desultory, and much of his
time was taken up by the writing of novels. Heavily influenced by the
larger-than-life adventurers he met in Colonial Africa, most notably Frederick Selous and Frederick Russell Burnham, the great mineral wealth
discovered in Africa, and the ruins of ancient lost civilizations in Africa
such as Great Zimbabwe, Haggard created his Allan Quatermain adventures. Three of his books, The Wizard (1896), Elissa; the doom of Zimbabwe (1899), and Black Heart and White Heart; a Zulu idyll (1900) are dedicated to Burnham's daughter, Nada, the first white child born in

Bulawayo, herself named after Haggard's 1892 book: Nada the Lily.
Years later, when Haggard was a successful novelist, he was contacted
by his former love, Lilith Jackson. She had been deserted by her husband, who had left her penniless and infected her with syphilis, from
which she eventually died. It was Haggard who paid her medical bills.
These details were not generally known until the publication of
Haggard's 1983 biography by D. S. Higgins. Haggard was heavily involved in agricultural reform and was a member of many Commissions
on land use and related affairs, work that involved several trips to the
Colonies and Dominions. He was made a Knight Bachelor in 1912, and a
Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1919. He stood
unsuccessfully for parliament as a candidate for the Conservative Party.

Introduction
This book, although it can be read as a separate story, is the third of the
trilogy of which Marie and Child of Storm are the first two parts. It narrates, through the mouth of Allan Quatermain, the consummation of the
vengeance of the wizard Zikali, alias The Opener of Roads, or "TheThing-that-should-never-have-been-born," upon the royal Zulu House of
which Senzangacona was the founder and Cetewayo, our enemy in the
war of 1879, the last representative who ruled as a king. Although, of
course, much is added for the purposes of romance, the main facts of history have been adhered to with some faithfulness.
With these the author became acquainted a full generation ago, Fortune having given him a part in the events that preceded the Zulu War.
Indeed he believes that with the exception of Colonel Phillips, who, as a
lieutenant, commanded the famous escort of twenty-five policemen, he is
now the last survivor of the party who, under the leadership of Sir Theophilus Shepstone, or Sompesu as the natives called him from the Zambesi to the Cape, were concerned in the annexation of the Transvaal in
1877. Recently also he has been called upon as a public servant to revisit
South Africa and took the opportunity to travel through Zululand, in order to refresh his knowledge of its people, their customs, their mysteries,
and better to prepare himself for the writing of this book. Here he stood
by the fatal Mount of Isandhlawana which, with some details of the
battle, is described in these pages, among the graves of many whom once
he knew, Colonels Durnford, Pulleine and others. Also he saw Ulundi's
