description: In 1914 Rider Haggard, one of Britain's most successful authors, whose best-selling books included King Solomon's Mines, She,  and Allan Quatermain, made the first entry in a diary. Of that entry, his close friend, Rudyard Kipling, later said, "It must be a very important work some day, of much value indeed to the generations to come." Now, fifty years after Haggard's death, this almost forgotten diary is being published for the first time. It provides not only a comprehensive self-portrait of one of England's most successful writers but also an insight into the social upheavals that between 1914 and 1925 shook the country that Rider Haggard strove so hard to serve.
