Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My favorite travel book. Sparkling, ironic, and terrific fun." — Jan Morris Eothen ("From the East") recaptures a bold young Englishman's exploits in the Middle East during the 1830s. Alexander William Kinglake recounts his rambles through the Balkans, Turkey, Cyprus, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt in a style radically different from other travel books of his era. Rather than dwelling on art or monuments, Kinglake's captivating narrative focuses on the natives and their cities. His adventures ― populated by Bedouins, pashas, slave-traders, monks, pilgrims, and other colorfully drawn personalities ― include crossing the desolate Sinai with a four-camel caravan and a sojourn in plague-ridden Cairo. A contemporary of Gladstone at Eton and of Tennyson and Thackeray at Cambridge, Kinglake offers a frankly imperialistic worldview. "As I felt so have I written," he declares in his preface, and his forthright expressions of his thoughts and impressions range in mood from confessional, to comic, to serious, to romantic. Victorian readers were captivated by Kinglake's chatty tone and his uncompromising honesty, and two centuries later this remarkable travelogue remains funny, fresh, and original.

Book excerpt: Eöthen is a classic Victorian travel book and a great adventure from the mind of an Englishman travelling as a stranger in a strange land. Eöthen (meaning "from the East"), or Traces of travel brought home from the East, is the debut work by English writer, politician, and barrister A. W. Kinglake. The grand tours of Europe in the 17th and 18th Centuries saw young men travelling throughout Europe, experiencing culture and adventure. In Eöthen, Kinglake writes about his own grand tour of 1834 and offers a glimpse inside the mind of the Victorian gentleman as he travels to strange and exciting lands in the orient. Over the course of the text, Kinglake tells us all about his experience in seeing the holy land, visiting the Dead Sea, and gazing upon the great pyramids at Giza.

Excerpt: ...with zeal, and watchfulness; he could not understand the debate, which indeed was carried on at a distance too great to be easily heard, even if the language had been familiar; but he was always on the alert, and now and then conferring with men who had straggled out of the assembly; at last he found an opportunity of making a proposal, which at once produced immense sensation; he offered, on my behalf, that if the tribe should bear themselves loyally towards me, and take my party, and my baggage in safety to the other bank of the river, I should give them a " teskeri," or written certificate of their good conduct, which might avail them hereafter in the hour of their direst need. This proposal was received, and instantly accepted by all the men of the tribe, there present, with the utmost enthusiasm. I was to give the men, too, a " baksheish," that is, a present of money, which is usually made upon the conclusion of any sort of treaty; but, although the people of the tribe were so miserably poor, they seemed to look upon _ the pecuniary part of the arrangement as a matter quite trivial in comparison with the " teskeri." Indeed the sum which Dthemetri promised them was extremely small, and not the slightest attempt was made to extort any further re" ard. The Council now broke up, and most of the men rushed madly towards me, and overwhelmed me with vehement gratulations; they caressed my boots with much affection, and my hands were severely kissed. The Arabs now went to work in right earnest to effect the passage of the river. They had brought with them a great number of the skins which they use for carrying water in the desert; these they filled with air, and fastened several of them to small...
