Бесстрашный охотник Аллан Квотермейн по прозвищу Макумазан, что означает «человек, который встает после полуночи», никогда не любил сырости и чопорности родной Англии, предпочитая жаркий пыльный простор африканского вельда; его влекли неизведанные, полные опасностей земли Черного континента, где живут простодушные и жестокие, как все дети природы, люди, где бродят стада диких буйволов и рычат по ночам свирепые львы. Вот эта жизнь была по нраву Квотермейну — любимому герою замечательного писателя Генри Райдера Хаггарда, который посвятил отважному охотнику множество книг. В настоящем издании представлены романы «Дитя из слоновой кости», «Древний Аллан», «Аллан и Ледяные боги: повесть об истоках», которые выходят в полных переводах, с сохранением примечаний английских издателей (конец XIX века). Книга иллюстрирована классическими рисунками Альберта Морроу и замечательной графикой Елены Шипицыной.
