Routledge, 28. okt. 2013 - 678 sider
First published in 1893, this is one of the great classics of travel. Going far beyond the record of a journey, it gives lively and entrancing descriptions of Persia and its people and is an infallible guide to modern Persian literature and thought. Written with tremendous enthusiasm by the greatest exponent of Persian life and letters of his day, it is a fascinating and instructive work.
