The Land of Midian V1 is a book written by Richard Burton, an English explorer, geographer, and writer. The book is a detailed account of Burton's travels and adventures in the region of Midian, located in present-day Saudi Arabia, during the mid-19th century. Burton's exploration of the area was significant because it was largely unknown to the Western world at the time. The book is divided into several chapters, each describing a different aspect of his journey, from the geography and climate of the region to the customs and traditions of its inhabitants.In addition to his observations of the land and its people, Burton also includes detailed descriptions of the flora and fauna of the area, as well as his encounters with various species of animals, including lions, hyenas, and gazelles.Overall, The Land of Midian V1 is a fascinating and informative account of one man's journey through an unfamiliar and exotic land, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Middle East.Unwilling, however, to risk the safety of the gunboat, where nothing was to be expected beyond what we had seen at El-'Akabah, I resolved, after waiting half an hour, not to land. The Sambuk received a cargo of quarrymen and sacks, in order to ship at Makna the ""argentiferous galena"" and other rocks left by Lieutenant Yusuf and M. Philipin upon the shore; and, that done, she was directed to rejoin us at Tiran Island. As long as the norther coursed high, she beat us hollow; in the afternoon, however, when the gale, as usual, abated, she fell off, perhaps purposely, not wishing to pass a night in the open. By sunset her white sail had clean disappeared, having slipped into some snug cove.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
