Omschrijving

Wanderings In Arabia V1 is a travelogue written by Charles Montagu Doughty and published in 1908. The book chronicles the author's travels through the Arabian Peninsula in the late 19th century, during which he spent two years living among the Bedouin tribes of the region. Doughty's account is a detailed and immersive exploration of the people, culture, and landscape of Arabia, with a focus on the desert regions of Najd and the Hejaz. The author's vivid descriptions of the harsh desert environment, the nomadic way of life, and the customs and traditions of the Bedouin people provide a fascinating insight into a world that was largely unknown to the Western world at the time.Throughout the book, Doughty recounts his encounters with various Bedouin tribes, including the powerful Rashidi dynasty and the Wahhabi sect. He also describes his experiences with the Hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, which he witnessed firsthand.The book is notable for its lyrical prose and richly detailed descriptions, as well as for its historical significance as a primary source on the Arabian Peninsula in the late 19th century. It remains a classic work of travel literature and an important resource for scholars of Middle Eastern history and culture.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
