Дочь Монтесумы

H. Rider Haggard's adventure stories often explore exotic lands, but I wonder what drew him specifically to Aztec civilization and how much research went into depicting it.

The characters' perspectives reflect the time when it was written, but I found myself questioning how these attitudes affect the story's message today.

The depiction of different worlds colliding is compelling, but I wonder if it resonates differently now compared to when it was first published.
