H Rider Haggard. Chapter 1. I Meet Sir Henry Curtis. It is a curious thing that at my age—fifty-five last birthday—I should find myself taking up a pen to try to write a history. I wonder what sort of a history it will be when I have finished it, if ever I come to the end of the trip!
Curtis was after Kings postcard collection of Indians and this made King “a little Cranky”( King 36). King preferred that Curtis had “photographed his Indians as he found them” (King 36) so that the photographs are “not romantic illusions, they are real people” (King 37).
