Long before H. Rider Haggard’s classic adventure novel King Solomon’s Mines unleashed gold fever more than a century ago, many had sought to find the source of the great king’s wealth. In this new adventure—“a hybrid of Indiana Jones and Herodotus” (Sunday Times, London)—Tahir Shah tries his hand at the quest. The map showed a trail leading to the fabled mines of King Solomon, who built the first temple of Israel out of gold, mined from the land of Ophir. Solomon's Mines have enthralled and tormented all those who have searched for them and superstition whispers of terrible curses that will befall anyone that finds them. In Search of King Solomon's Mines begins as Tahir Shah is caught by a crudely drawn map of Ethiopia found in Ali Baba's Tourist Emporium. Six hundred shekels, cheap at the price, Ali Baba tells him. Shah knows the map is a fake. He knows he's been sold the same map as hundreds or thousands of others.
