A Voyage Up the Persian Gulf and a Journey Overland from India to England in 1817, is a well written and fast moving account of Lt. William Heude's perilous journey which began in the Indian State of Malabar. He renders a colorful report of Onore, Goa, Bombay and other cities of the sub-continent. His sea voyage to Muscat and thru the Persian Gulf to Bussora in the company of an insane ship's Captain is not without humor and is a delightful prelude to his 2,200 mile overland horseback ride to Constantinople. Throughout the course of his narrative Lt. Heude provides excellent descriptions of ruins of Babylonia, the history of the cities of Baghdad and Mosul and the Bedouin of the desert. He also devotes several pages to the Arabian horse. His adventures with the Kurds in the mountains of Kurdistan are exceptionally vivid. The fast passed narrative depicts his long ride through Ottoman Turkey much better than many later accounts. It is a book well worth reading for all those interested in that exotic part of the world.Product details
