Book review - "Maiwa's Revenge" by H Rider Haggard

A short novel comprising of a very long anecdote told by Allan Quatermain which breaks into two parts - Quatermain on an elephant hunt, which is a little dull to be honest, and an adventure where he helps rescue a captured English hunter and avenge an African princess whose husband killed her baby. This is exciting and has novelty of Quatermain working on behalf of a black woman (another strong female character from Haggard) and leading black troops. As if out of fear this might seem liberal he emphasises he wouldn't have gone had it not been for the Englishman. Some good action and a lot of dead elephants.
