Trollope's writing is characterized by his wit, humor, and keen observations, making the book an entertaining and informative read for anyone interested in travel writing, history, or the Middle East.He was, at any rate, up to his time, for when I came down on the following morning I found him in the narrow street, the first on horseback. Joseph, the Frenchman, was strapping on to a rough pony our belongings, and was staring at Mr. Smith. My new friend, unfortunately, could not speak a word of French, and therefore I had to explain to the dragoman how it had come to pass that our party was to be enlarged.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
