This book is a fascinating account of a British traveler's journey through the Middle East in the 19th century. Henry Cowper embarked on a long and perilous journey from the Mediterranean to Bombay, passing through the deserts of Arabia and visiting many historic sites and cities, including Damascus, Baghdad, and Basra. He provides a vivid description of the landscapes, cultures, and people he encountered, as well as his thoughts on the political and historical issues of his time. This is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in adventure and travel writing.

Excerpt from Through Turkish Arabia: A Journey From the Mediterranean to Bombay by the Euphrates and Tigris Valleys and the Persian Gulf The journey from Bagdad to Bombay is of course civilised, and sufficiently well known, but I hope that the reader will find in the part relating to it some matter of interest.

Excerpt from Travels in the Middle East: Being Impressions by the Way in Turkish Arabia, Syria, and Persia These two trips were taken, it is hardly necessary to say, and the records of them written, before the War broke out. The result of the tremendous struggle now in progress will bring, of course, considerable changes to the Middle East, and it may seem that such changes will make this book not so much a picture as far as it is a picture at all - Oi present-day travel in the countries concerned as of travel-conditions of a bygone age; that it may haltingly answer the question, What was it like 7' instead of What is it like P It is true that with the changes may come those revolutionaries of travel - railways that where the writer's caravan bells tinkled merrily there may one day be heard the raucous scream of the locomo tive and that journeys which took the writer weeks of preparation and months of actual wayfaring may be accomplished by the reader in a few days after five minutes' conversation at a booking-office. But it is also true that the said changes will in the main affect politics, of which this book contains no mention from cover to cover; that railways are not built in a day nor yet in a year that even when - ii ever - they stretch across the Middle East they will be few and far between, and that in the wide Spaces between will still lie the happy hunting-grounds of the traveller.

Arabia infelix; or the Turks in Yamen is a history of Yemen and the southern Arabian Peninsula from earliest times to the eve of World War I. George Wyman Bury (1874-1920) was an adventurer and sometime soldier who spent 16 years exploring the mountainous regions of Yemen. Arabia infelix covers all aspects of Yemen, which, until the end of the war, formed part of the Ottoman Empire. Chapters treat biblical and ancient history, flora and fauna, the manners and customs of its rural and urban population, as well as economic life, trade, and politics. In ancient times, the arid region stretching from Anatolia to Aden was divided roughly into three parts, Arabia Deserta (Deserted Arabia), Arabia Petra (the frontier of the Roman Empire), and Arabia Felix (Happy Arabia, or Yemen), so named because there was sufficient rainfall to support an agricultural economy. By entitling his book Arabia infelix (Unhappy Arabia), Bury signals his view that Turkish rule was an impediment to the prosperity and well-being of the country. G.W. Bury spent most of his life outside his native Britain, living in parts of Africa, in Yemen, and then in Egypt, where he served in the British army as a junior officer and military analyst. Chronic poor health harmed his career and shortened his life. He died in convalescence in Helwan, a health resort near Cairo. His other works include The Land of Uz, a travel narrative written under the pen name Abdullah Mansur, and Pan-Islam, a post-war study of Turkish and German attempts to rally the Muslim world against the Allied powers in World War I. Bury's writing was not always well reviewed, perhaps because it lacked the heft and gravitas of writings by other travelers. His style is almost conversational, as in this quip about insect life in Yemen: "The prevalent creepy-crawly in Yamen is certainly the millipede." The book contains three maps and numerous photographs of landscapes, city views, and Yemeni people.

Excerpt from Behind the Veil in Persia and Turkish Arabia: An Account of an Englishwoman's Eight Years Residence Amongst the Women of the East I have endeavoured in this book to give some account of that inner life of the East of which a traveller, however keen-sighted and intelligent, seldom gains more than a passing glimpse. In a residence of eight years in Persia and Turkish Arabia I have become intimate with a large circle of friends whose life is passed behind the veil, and as the wife of a medical missionary I have had unusual opportunities of winning their confidence and becoming acquainted with their thoughts. Of direct missionary effort I have said very little, but I hope that the picture I have given may arouse interest in lives spent amongst surroundings so different from our own. It is impossible for 'any one, however unversed in politics, who has lived so long in Mesopotamia, not to be deeply interested in the future of the country. While all Europe has been filled with astonishment at the bloodless revolution in Turkey, we who have become familiar with its inner life are touched with a feeling of admiration and something akin to awe. Whatever misgivings there may be as to the permanence of this reformation we h0pe and trust that it will endure.
