Henry Rider Haggard is an English writer and author of many historical adventure novels, the geography of which is very wide. The novel "The Daughter of Montezuma" is dedicated to one of the most dramatic moments in the history of Mexico - the struggle of its indigenous population, the Aztecs, with the Spanish conquistadors led by Hernan Cortes. The young Englishman Thomas Wingfield, leaving his beloved at home, goes in search of his mother's killer to Spain, and then to America. Fate is harsh with Thomas: his ship is wrecked, the young man falls into the hands of the Indians and becomes the husband of Otomi, daughter of the Aztec emperor Montezuma. The incredible adventures of the Englishman do not end there - he will have to fight the Spanish conquerors, endure torture and rule the Indian tribe ... But, in spite of everything, Thomas will remain a man who keeps his word and keeps his honor and dignity. Realistic illustrations by Sergei Yarovoy perfectly convey the atmosphere of the book.
