About this book

In The Land of Midian (Revisited) Volume 1, Richard F. Burton leads an expedition in search of the legendary goldmines of Midian, coming up short on treasure but delivering one of the finest accounts of 19th century north-west Arabia. His keen observations – published alongside beautiful sketches of the region – paint an intricate picture of a land that continues to attract the world’s attention today. This new edition, with a new map, glossary, and foreword by historian Dane Kennedy, reintroduces Burton’s colourful account of an area once shrouded in mystery.
