Blurb: “From H. Rider Haggard, celebrated author of King Solomon’s Mines and She, comes a Victorian adventure novel blending romance, mystery, suspense, and the supernatural.
Set against the backdrop of nineteenth-century England and South Africa, The Witch’s Head explores the intertwined forces of love, ambition, fate, and personal honor. As secrets emerge and relationships unravel, Haggard weaves a dramatic tale of human passions and the far-reaching consequences of the past.
This antique hardcover edition was published in London by Spencer Blackett and features sixteen full-page illustrations by Charles Kerr. Bound in decorative brown cloth with silver lettering, this illustrated edition offers a beautiful example of late-Victorian book design.”
