First published in 1855 under title: Personal narrative of a pilgrimage to El-Medinah and Meccah.
"With tracks every 3 minutes for easy book marking"--Container.
Narrated by Patrick Tull.
In the 19th century, Sir Richard Francis Burton--Oxford-educated spy and adventurer--became the first Englishman to enter the Muslim city of Mecca. Disguised as a dervish, Burton braved the harsh desert climate, Bedouin bandits, and the scrutiny of Muslim travelers to reach the forbidden city. He recorded his experiences in this book, a fascinating adventure of unique anthropological significance.
