A fascinating first-hand account of Edward G. Browne's year spent in Persia, a country that has become modern day Iran.
Edward G. Browne was a Fellow and a Lecturer in Persian at the University of Cambridge and spent 1887 to 1888 living in Persia, and recorded his thoughts and observations on the lifestyles, social character, and customs of the Persian people. Also including topographical descriptions of Tabriz, Teheran, Isfahan, Shiraz, Yezd, Kirman and more.
The first edition of this work.
Illustrated with the folding map in colour at the front of the work.
A smart copy of this scarce to find work.
