La auténtica historia de Las minas del rey Salomón es un estudio riguroso que narra el conflicto del Imperio Británico con el reino de los matabele en áfrica con el fin de apoderarse de sus tierras ricas en oro y piedras preciosas, hechos que inspiraron a Henry Rider Haggard para escribir su novela Las minas del rey Salomón. El autor relata la vida de los principales protagonistas (Cecil Rhodes, David Livingstone, Robert Baden-Powell, Frederick C. Selous, Mzilikazi, Lobengula?) y su decisiva intervención para el sometimiento de los matabele y la fundación de Rhodesia (Zimbabwe actual).
