This book interprets the quest romances of R L Stevenson, Rider Haggard, Kipling and Conan Doyle in the light of Victoriandebates within the then nascent sciences of Anthropology and Archaeology. Starting with a discussion of the nature of romance, it goes on to interpret the encounters with lost or buried pasts. By describing encounters with remote places and times, so it argues, these authors were asking their readers disconcerting questions about humankind, and about their own culture's institutions and beliefs.
