Prester John Author:John Buchan
"Perfect love casteth out fear, the Bible says; but, to speak it reverently, so does perfect hate."--Ch. 9Published in 1910, this novel tells the story of the young Scotsman, David Crawfurd, and his adventures in South Africa, where a Zulu uprising is tied to the medieval legend of Prester John. Crawfurd is similar in many ways to Buchan's later character, Richard Hannay.
