Abstract Rider Haggard is best known for his colonial adventure stories, King Solomon's Mines, Alan Quatermain and She, that are widely held to have reinforced the values that promoted British imperialism in the late Victorian period. His heroes are nearly always brave in danger, stoical in adversity, upright in morals, and just when they subdue natives to whom they impart elevating elements of British cul- ture. Blacks, or 'natives' are usually seen as violent barbarians and, at best, noble savages. | ||
