Description based on print version record.
Summary:A classic of fantasy literature, She has sold over 83 million copies in 44 different languages and is one of the best-selling books of all time. Extremely popular upon its release in 1887, She tells the story of Horace Holly's adventure into the African interior with his servant, Leo. While traversing the jungles, they encounter natives who worship a white queen called Ayesha, who rules as the all-powerful She.  It is with this novel that Haggard solidified the conventions of his Lost World genre that fantasy and science fiction authors continue to emulate today, in addition to exploring the use of female authority and powerful female characters in Victorian fiction.
