A reference guide to the works of the Reverend Richard Hakluyt and a critical evaluation of his achievements.
A large number and wide variety of accounts of European travellers to the Near East, Egypt and Greece have been preserved and some of the `most vivid and memorable' are collected here. The journeys and achievements of these pioneers are recounted in this book. They range from the Cicero brothers in the 1st century to the French expedition to map the Morea in the 19th century, and include the courageous travellers who fought all sorts of perils to get to the ancient city of Petra, the grand tour of Mr John and Mrs Mary Smith, and the remarkable travels of Gertrude Bell. The essays are taken from a conference of the Association for the Study of Travel in Egypt and the Near East (ASTENE) held in Edinburgh in 2001.
