SHE AND ALLAN

She and Allan is a novel by Sir H. Rider Haggard, first published serially under the title "She Meets Allan" in Hutchinson’s Story Magazine with illustrations by Maurice Greiffenhagen between July 1919 and March 1920. It was published in book form in 1921 by Hutchinson and Co in the United Kingdom and by Longman, Green & Co in the United States. It brought together his two most popular characters, Ayesha from his 1887 novel She (to which it serves as a prequel), and Allan Quatermain from his 1885 novel King Solomon's Mines. Umslopogaas from Nada the Lily (1892) also appears in the novel as a major character. Along with the other three novels in the Ayesha series, She and Allan was adapted into the 1935 film She. She and Allan is the third story in the Ayesha series and the fifteenth in the Quatermain series. In addition to Umslopogaas, Zikali, a witch doctor who appeared in other novels, makes an appearance herein. It was republished by the Newcastle Publishing Company as the sixth volume of the Newcastle Forgotten Fantasy Library series in September 1975.
