When I returned in the afternoon from the ascent of the Sumra I found it was already a matter of talk in the town. The first persons met with approached to ask me, "What have you found there - anything? tell us! certainly you went to see something yonder, and else wherefore had the Nasrany climbed upon those high rocks, and paid pence for an ass?" As I passed by the suk tradesmen beckoned to me from the shops, they too would speak with me of the adventure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wanderings in Arabia, Vol. 2 of 2: Being an Abridgment of "Travels in Arabia Deserta" Some of the villagers Came up to me immediately to enquire for medicines they were full of tedious words and all was to beg of me and buy none. I left them sitting and went out to see the place, for this was Kheybar. Our host sent his son to guide me; the boy led down by a lane and called me to enter a doorway and see a spring. I went in - it was a mesjid! And I withdrew hastily. The father (who had instructed the child beforehand), hearing from him when we came again that I had left the place without praying, went down and shut his street door. He returned and took his pistol from the wall, Saying, Let us go out together and he would show me round the town.' When we were in the street, he led me by an orchard path, out of the place.

Book excerpt: 2015 Reprint of Original 1955 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Abridged by Edward Garnett. Long famous among scholars and students of Arab history and culture, readers of travel and adventure books, and lovers of English literature, Charles M. Doughty's "Travels in Arabia Deserta" is in its original form a formidable work of over 1,400 pages, a daunting length for many readers. This excellent abridgment, less than a quarter of that length, is ideally suited to a wide audience of general readers. Written after the author had spent two years wandering among the Bedouin nomads, the remarkable book describes Doughty's attempt to reach Mecca, his endurance of extraordinary hardships, and his first-hand observations of Arab life and culture in the 1870s. The work is as revered for the exceptional power and beauty of its prose as it is for its panoramic view of a fascinating and mysterious land. Originally published as "Passages from Arabia Deserta" by Horace Liveright, Inc., New York, 1931.
