Publisher's Synopsis
The Curse of the Lion (1922) includes twelve loosely connected Club Stories of vengeance, murder, and the supernatural from Darkest Africa. Ghosts, curses, and lost races mix with slave-traders, marauders, and "ape men." Set in the era of British Imperialism, F. A. M. Webster explores the darkness within the human heart while his characters explore territories unknown. Note: This reprint contains racial epithets, ethnic stereotypes, and colonial attitudes, and may not be appropriate for all readers.
