Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative captures English poet Charles Doughty's remarkable journeys through the Arabian deserts, showcasing his discoveries and experiences. Renowned for its lyrical prose and comprehensive detail, this work set a standard for ambitious travel literature in the early 20th century. Written in a style reminiscent of the King James Bible, it combines extravagance with creativity. T.E. Lawrence's endorsement in the 1920s revitalized interest in the book, leading to its republication, including a rare 1921 edition featuring his introduction.
