| | Staat: Goede staat van conservering Omschrijving C.M. Doughty spent over a year wandering Northern Arabia gathering material for this extraordinary book. Eccentric, redolent with sharply observerd life, anecdote, local colour and telling detail, Arabia Deserta is not only a Victorian traveller`s interpretation of a mysterious - and largely unfathomed - Orient, but also a daring experiment in the use of language at its richest and most highly wrought. This Penguin edition is a selection from the orgininal massive work, edited by the distinguished Edward Garnett. |
