Dedication

Name: The Virgin of the Sun - Dedication
Author: Henry Rider Haggard

My Dear Little,

Some five-and-thirty years ago it was our custom to discuss many
matters, among them, I think, the history and romance of the
vanished Empires of Central America.

In memory of those far-off days will you accept a tale that deals
with one of them, that of the marvellous Incas of Peru; with the
legend also that, long before the Spanish Conquerors entered on
their mission of robbery and ruin, there in that undiscovered land
lived and died a White God risen from the sea?

Ever sincerely yours,
H. Rider Haggard.
Ditchingham,
Oct. 24, 1921.

James Stanley Little, Esq.
