Beatrice is an 1890 novel by the British writer H. Rider Haggard.
[1] The author later called it "one of the best bits of work I ever did.
"[2] It is much the most successful non-African thing he has done; and the best parts of it are better than all but the very best parts of his African stories and higher than even these in attempt.
