Description

Experience the Middle East through a lens unlike any other in this Victorian travel account. Published by Routledge, this book follows a unique six-month voyage across the region by canoe.

This narrative offers a rare perspective on the landscape, moving from the bustling atmosphere of colorful markets and Pasha's palaces to the quiet isolation of solitary marshes. It is a story of survival and discovery, documenting a trek that faced constant challenges, including encounters with jackals, bandits, and crocodiles. Readers will follow MacGregor as he navigates through airy minarets and remote waterways, providing a vivid look at the Middle East during an adventurous age. This book is an ideal choice for history enthusiasts interested in Egypt and the unique history of travel through the Jordan and surrounding regions.
