Lilias Rider Haggard, daughter of prolific author H. Rider Haggard, grew up in the shadow of her well-known father but emerged as an author in her own right, with a number of published books and regular columns in both the local press and national publications. She had had the privilege of sharing in some of her father's exotic travels but also shared her generations tragic experiences of the First World War. Victoria Manthorpe brings together the many strands of her life in this first biography.

The famous imagination of Rider Haggard - author of King Solomon's Mines and She - could scarcely have invented the adventures of his own family: ten siblings whose lives and achievements around the globe stand as an emblem of Britain at the height of Empire.
