Marie: An Episode in the Life of the Late Allan Quatermain

by H. Rider Haggard

Marie is the compelling story of Allan Quatermain's first love, a beautiful Zulu woman named Marie. Set against the backdrop of the Great Trek in the 1830s, the story follows Quatermain and Marie as they navigate the challenges of a forbidden love, racial prejudice, and the treacherous machinations of a ruthless Zulu chief and a murderous Portuguese villain. Despite the obstacles they face, Quatermain and Marie's love for each other burns brightly, leading to a heart-wrenching and unforgettable tale of passion, sacrifice, and the indomitable human spirit.
