Summary "Kuningas Salomon kaivokset" by H. Rider Haggard is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the adventures of Allan Quatermain, a seasoned elephant hunter, as he recounts his various experiences, particularly his involvement with two other men, Henry Curtis and John God, in a quest to find the legendary mines of King Solomon, rumored to be rich in treasures. The narrative combines elements of adventure, exploration, and the mysteries of ancient civilization, making it an intriguing read for fans of classic adventure tales. At the start of the novel, the protagonist, Allan Quatermain, reflects on his life and experiences as a hunter and adventurer, humorously noting his current situation due to an injury. He recounts his chance encounters with Henry Curtis and John God on a ship traveling to Durban, where they discuss shared interests in hunting and exploration. Curtis reveals his desire to find his long-lost brother, Neville, who disappeared while seeking the fabled mines of Solomon. Quatermain is initially hesitant but ultimately agrees to join the expedition after a period of contemplation, setting the stage for their journey into the unknown and the perils that await them.
