Might reprint it (copyright's long since out on it) but I'm not totally sure that it counts as either science-fiction or horror. There are far too few of them around any more.
It's a story of courage, determination, and honor fulfilled. That's why, in spite of its problems with biology and attitudes toward non-whites, I love it. Also, by the fact that Leningen won in the end - in most modern science fiction, Leningen would have failed and died. Read it for the first time decades ago, recently re-read it, and was struck by the strength of the writing.
