Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travels in Arabia Deserta, originally published in 1888, is a two-volume set which describes English poet Charles Doughty's extensive travels through the Arabian deserts and the discoveries he made there. The work became well-regarded for its beautiful prose as well as its extensiveness, which made it a benchmark of ambitious travel writing in the early 20th century. Written in the style of the King James Bible, the text is extravagant and creative. In the 1920's, it was discovered by British Army Officer T.E. Lawrence, who spurred the book's republication, this time with an introduction from Lawrence. The book has been in and out of print since then, but the Cosimo edition is a rare 1921 reprint, and includes the Lawrence introduction. Volume I includes T.E. Lawrence's Introduction, as well as accounts of Doughty's treks to Mecca, Ammon and Moab, the Mountain of Edom, Arabia, the Passage of the Harra, Teyma, and more. He also describes nomad life in the desert and ancient stories, peoples, and myths connected with his travels. CHARLES MONTAGU DOUGHTY (1843-1926) was an English poet and writer born in Theberton Hall, Saxmundham, Suffolk. He attended King's College London and graduated from Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge in 1864. Among this author's works are an epic poem in six volumes titled The Dawn in Britain, published in 1906, and his well-known Travels in Arabia Deserta, for which he received much praise.

This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Montagu Doughty's Travels in Arabia Deserta (1888) is remarkable for its scientific evelations and brilliantly unique style—an artful combination of Arabic and English syntax and diction that rendered a foreign way of life and thought and depicted a distant landscape of stark, barren beauty. The ten original essays in this book examine many aspects of Arabia Deserta, including its Victorian characteristics and aesthetics; its blend of fact and fantasy; its portrayal of Arab society and of Doughty himself; and the accuracy of its geographical, geological, archaeological, historical, and ethnographical observations. Additionally, the book's introduction and two bibliographies probe Arabia Deserta's reception, unique position in the genre of travel literature, and bibliographical history. During the grueling twenty-one-month journey narrated in Arabia Deserta, Doughty endured periods of sickness and near-famine, a series of treacherous guides, attack by a mob, and virtual imprisonment by a corrupt Turkish commandant. Celebrating this epic of scholarship and survival, Explorations in Doughty's "Arabia Deserta" maps the contours of a work that T. E. Lawrence, who had followed Doughty's path to Arabia, called "a book not like other books, but something particular, a bible of its kind."

A Moor hakim had visited Hayil. He cast out demons. The jins. Superstitious fears of the Arabs. Exorcists. A counterfeit Christian vaccinator cut off in the desert. Advantage of the profession of medicine. Hamud sends his sick infant son to the Nasrany hakim, who cures also Hamud's wife. Diseases at Hayil. The great Kasr. The guest-chambers. Hayil house-building. Wards of the town. Artificers. Visit to S'weyfly. The makbara has swallowed up the inhabitants. Deaf and dumb man-at-arms of the Emir. Majid shooting with ball. English gunpowder. Gulf words heard at Hayil. Palms and a gum-mastic tree in Ajja. 'The coming of Mohammed foretold in the Enjil.' Hamud's tolerant urbanity. Another audience. The princely family of Ibn Rashid. Telal a slayer of himself. Metaab succeeded him. His nephews, Telal's sons, conspire to kill him. Metaab dies by their shot. Bunder prince. Mohammed who fled to er-Ridth returns upon assurance of peace. He is again conductor of the Bagdad pilgrims. He comes again to Hayil with the yearly convoy of temmn for the public kitchen. Bunder rides forth with his brother Bedr and Hamud to meet him. Mohammed slays (his nephew) Bunder Hamud's speech to the people. Tragedies in the Castle. Mohammed's speech in the Meshab. He sits down as Muhafuth. Bedr taken and slain. Mohammed slays the slayer. Hamud's nature. Mohammed the Emir is childless. His moderation and severity. The princely bounty. The Shammar state. Villages and hamlets. The public dues and taxes and expense of government. The Prince's horses sold in India. His forces. Ibn Rashid's forays. He "weakens" the Aarab. The Shammar principality. 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.
