She also provides a vivid account of her discovery of the Kufara oasis, which had been unknown to the outside world for centuries.The book is a fascinating exploration of the history, culture, and geography of the Sahara, as well as an engaging personal narrative of Forbes' adventures and discoveries.

Forbes, an Englishwoman, made history when, in 1935, traveling alone and using every conceivable means of transportation, she made it from Peshawar to Samarkand and beyond in Afghan. In this volume she relates the fascinating account of her remarkable journey to Kufra, made in the company of Ahmed Hassanein Bey, disguised as a bedouin woman. She was the second European to ever reach Kufra.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
