Personal Narrative of a Pilgrimage to Al-Madinah & Meccah — Volume 1
Publisher Description
This book tells of how Burton made the Hajj, or pilgrimage to Mecca, in disguise. A thoroughly dangerous undertaking as any Non-Muslims entering the holy cities would likely have been killed if discovered. Burton tells his story with an eye for detail and a great sense of humour.
