Book excerpt: Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan, complete volume I and II, (Illustrated) Isabella Bishop (nee Bird) published her Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan in 1891, compiled from a series of letters home. Recommended an open-air life from an early age as a cure for physical and nervous difficulties, Bird toured the United States and Canada, New Zealand, Australia and the Far East.

Book excerpt: Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan By Isabella Bird This book is an illustrated version of the original Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan by Isabella L. Bird. "The letters of which these volumes are composed embrace the second half of journeys in the East extending over a period of two years. They attempt to be a faithful record of facts and impressions, but were necessarily written in haste at the conclusion of fatiguing marches, and often in circumstances of great discomfort and difficulty, and I relied for their correction in the event of publication on notes made with much care. Unfortunately I was robbed of nearly the whole of these, partly on my last journey in Persia and partly on the Turkish frontier, -a serious loss, which must be my apology to the reader for errors which, without this misfortune, would not have occurred." We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience. Persia and Kurdistan, Persia and Kurdistan book, Persia and Kurdistan Bird

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan (Volume 1)" is part of Isabella Lucy Bird's travel writings, chronicling her expeditions through Persia (modern-day Iran) and Kurdistan in the latter half of the 19th century. Published in 1891, this volume recounts her immersive experiences, encounters, and observations during her extensive travels through these regions. Isabella Lucy Bird, known for her adventurous spirit and keen observations, provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, cultures, and societies she encountered. Her narrative style offers readers an intimate and detailed portrayal of the people, customs, daily life, and geographical features of Persia and Kurdistan during that era. Throughout the book, Bird delves into the challenges and triumphs of her journeys, often navigating rugged terrains and interacting with diverse communities. Her account not only serves as a travelogue but also offers historical and cultural insights into the regions she visited. She portrays the beauty of the landscapes, the complexities of local traditions, and the resilience of the people she encountered. Bird's writing style, blending adventure, cultural exploration, and personal anecdotes, continues to captivate readers interested in travel literature, Middle Eastern culture, history, and the experiences of a Victorian-era female explorer in remote and less-explored regions.
