About this item

Author: George Rodger

Publisher: 1946, The Travel Book Club

Pagination: 151

Format: Hardback

Condition: Good, with edge wear and sunning to the cover.

First edition.

The author left England at the height of the 1940 London blitz, bound for the Free French Camerouns. He began a diary for his own interest and for his friends to read on his return. The notes for this book are taken from his diary and the book is more a saga of travel than a chronicle of war. His long journey took him across Africa into the mountains of Abyssinia and the deserts of Libya, Iraq and Iran. Then onto Persia and India ... ending in Benghazi for Christmas! The book is illustrated with a large number of black and white plates originally produced for TIME magazine.
