The Life of Captain Sir Richard F. Burton is a 2 volumes biography of a British explorer, writer, ethnologist, spy, Freemason, and diplomat, written by his wife Lady Isabel Burton. Burton was famed for his travels and explorations in Asia, Africa, and the Americas, as well as his extraordinary knowledge of languages and cultures. Burton's travels and services were widely known and popular, so the author's main goal was to show the real man beneath the cultivated mask that generally hid all feelings and belief. Lady Isabel tells the story of her husband and his achievements through the story of their common life, providing some exclusive information from their private life and showing side of his life that was not known to the public.

A New York Times best-seller when it was first published, Rice's biography is the gripping story of a fierce, magnetic, and brilliant man whose real-life accomplishments are the stuff of legend. Rice retraces Burton's steps as the first European adventurer to search for the source of the Nile; to enter, disguised, the forbidden cities of Mecca and Medina; and to travel through remote stretches of India, the Near East, and Africa. From his spying exploits to his startling literary accomplishments (the discovery and translation of the Kama Sutra and his seventeen-volume translation of Arabian Nights), Burton was an engrossing, larger-than-life Victorian figure, and Rice's splendid biography lays open a portrayal as dramatic, complicated, and compelling as the man himself.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... THE TRUE LIFE OF CAPT. SIR RICHARD F. BURTON K.C.M.G. F.R.G.S. ETC. CHAPTER I DICHARD FRANCIS BURTON was born on the DEGREES i9th March, 1821, at Barham House, Herts, the home of his maternal grandfather and grandmother, Richard and Sarah Beckwith Baker. His mother, one of three coheiresses, had married the earliest; and he, her first child, became the darling of the household. Baptized in due course at Elstree Parish Church, he spent most part of his infancy with these relatives; and, as often happens even with very young children, who have passed two or three perfectly happy years, and never quite forget them, he could just remember being brought down after dinner to dessert, seated on the knee of a tall man with yellow hair and bright blue eyes. His grandfather on the paternal side he never saw. The Rev. Edward Burton, Rector of Tuam, was educated in England for the Church; and, on being presented with his Irish benefice, left the Lake Country with his brother Edmond, afterwards Dean of Killala, and settled in Ireland for the rest of his life. These brothers, originally of Barker's Hill, near Shap, Westmoreland, were related to the Burtons of Longnor, like Lord Conyngham and Sir Charles Burton of Pollacton; and were, in fact, collateral descendants of Francis Pierpoint Burton first Marquis of Conyngham. The notable man of the family, Sir Edward Burton, fought so bravely during the Wars of the Roses, that he was made a Knight Banneret by Edward IV after the second battle of St. Albans. The rector who, besides his living, possessed private means, had not been long in Ireland before he purchased the property of Newgarden, near Tuam, where he seems to have combined, according to the easy-going fashion of the day, the duties of squire
