Queen Sheba's Ring (Hardcover)

H. Rider Haggard is mostly known and remembered for writing tales of Africa -- which this is -- but it's something different, too. It's a tale of plots and warlike machination among the Abysinian Jews -- well, not them, exactly, it's more like he'd heard there were such a thing and had to write a novel about them, but misplaced all the details. It's a cool adventure, though, like all of Haggard. Hightly recommended.
