Maiwas Revenge: The War of the Little Hand

Maiwas Revenge is a short novel by English writer H. Rider Haggard about the hunter Allan Quatermain. The story involves Quatermain going on a hunting expedition, and then taking part in an attack on a native kraal to rescue a captured English hunter and avenge Maiwa, an African princess whose baby has been killed. Quatermain leads his team into battle, which is intense and brutal, but Quatermains expertise and bravery prove invaluable as they emerge victorious. With the English hunter rescued and Maiwas honour restored, Quatermain and his team return home as heroes, their names forever etched in African folklore as fearless warriors who fought for justice and honour.
