Publisher's Synopsis

Travels in Arabia Desert Volume 2 is a book written by Charles M. Doughty, an English traveler and writer who explored the Arabian Peninsula in the late 19th century. The book is a continuation of Doughty's account of his journey through the desert regions of Arabia, where he lived among the Bedouin tribes and learned about their customs, language, and way of life. In this volume, Doughty describes his travels through the interior of the Arabian Peninsula, including the regions of Najd and the Hijaz. He recounts his encounters with various Bedouin tribes, their hospitality, and their traditions. He also provides detailed descriptions of the landscape, flora, and fauna of the desert regions he visited. The book is an important historical document, as it provides a rare glimpse into the life of the Bedouin tribes and their culture before the modernization of Arabia. Doughty's writing style is highly descriptive and poetic, and his observations are insightful and nuanced, making the book a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Arabian Peninsula.Complete And Unabridged With All Original Maps, Plans And Illustrations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
