Excerpt from Travels in Arabia Deserta, Vol. 2 Curious questioning of the townspeople. A Moor hakim had visited Hayil. He cast out demons. The jins. Superstitious fears of the Arabs. Exorcists. A counterfeit Christian vaccinator cut off in the desert. Advantage of the profession of medicine. Hamud sends his sick infant son to the Nasrany hakim, who cures also Hamud's wife. Diseases at Hayil. The great Kasr. The guest-chambers. Hayil house-building. Wards of the town. Artificers. Visit to S'weyfly. The makbara has swallowed up the inhabitants. Deaf and dumb man-at-arms of the Emir. Majid shooting with ball. English gunpowder. Gulf words heard at Hayil. Palms and a gum-mastic tree in Ajja. 'The coming of Mohammed foretold in the Enjil.' Hamud's tolerant urbanity. Another audience. The princely family of Ibn Rashid. Telal a slayer of himself. Metaab succeeded him. His nephews, Telal's sons, conspire to kill him. Metaab dies by their shot. Bunder prince. Mohammed who fled to er-Ridth returns upon assurance of peace. He is again conductor of the Bagdad pilgrims. He comes again to Hayil with the yearly convoy of temmn for the public kitchen. Bunder rides forth with his brother Bedr and Hamud to meet him. Mohammed slays (his nephew) Bunder Hamud's speech to the people. Tragedies in the Castle. Mohammed's speech in the Meshab. He sits down as Muhafuth. Bedr taken and slain. Mohammed slays the slayer. Hamud's nature. Mohammed the Emir is childless. His moderation and severity. The princely bounty. The Shammar state. Villages and hamlets. The public dues and taxes and expense of government. The Prince's horses sold in India. His forces. Ibn Rashid's forays. He "weakens" the Aarab. The Shammar principality. When I returned in the afternoon from the ascent of the Sumra I found it was already a matter of talk in the town. The first persons met with approached to ask me, "What have you found there - anything? tell us! certainly you went to see something yonder, and else wherefore had the Nasrany climbed upon those high rocks, and paid pence for an ass?" As I passed by the suk tradesmen beckoned to me from the shops, they too would speak with me of the adventure.

2015 Reprint of Original 1955 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Abridged by Edward Garnett. Long famous among scholars and students of Arab history and culture, readers of travel and adventure books, and lovers of English literature, Charles M. Doughty's "Travels in Arabia Deserta" is in its original form a formidable work of over 1,400 pages, a daunting length for many readers. This excellent abridgment, less than a quarter of that length, is ideally suited to a wide audience of general readers. Written after the author had spent two years wandering among the Bedouin nomads, the remarkable book describes Doughty's attempt to reach Mecca, his endurance of extraordinary hardships, and his first-hand observations of Arab life and culture in the 1870s. The work is as revered for the exceptional power and beauty of its prose as it is for its panoramic view of a fascinating and mysterious land. Originally published as "Passages from Arabia Deserta" by Horace Liveright, Inc., New York, 1931.
