Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Boy Travelers in Arabia; Or, From Boston to Bagdad: Including Pictures, Sketches, and Anecdotes of the Wandering Arabs, and of the City "of Good Haroun Alraschid;" Lady Blunt´s interesting account of her journey across the Syrian Desert to Bagdad, in 1877-8, suggested the writing of the present volume. Her observations on the habits of the Arabian nomads, whose wanderings include the regions lying near the river Euphrates, and with whom she and her husband traveled and encamped awhile, combined with the descriptions of Burckhardt, Colonel Chesney, Layard, Ridgaway, Field, etc., constitute the basis on which this book is constructed. Gibbon and other standard historians are authorities for its historic facts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
