    About this product

    Product Information

    Richard Burton's life offers dazzling riches. He was one of the greatest Victorian explorers, an innovative translator and brilliant linguist, a prolific travel writer, a pioneer in the fields of anthropology and sexual psychology, a mesmeric lover, a spy and a publisher of erotica. Fawn Brodie has created a vivid portrait of this remarkable man, who emerges from the richly textured fabric of his time. His travels to Mecca and Medina dressed as a Muslim pilgrim, his witnessing of the human sacrifices at Dahomey and his unlikely but loving partnership with his pious Catholic bride are all treated with warmth, scholarship and understanding.

      Book arrived in mint condition and was exactly as described by the seller. Sir Richard Burton was a larger than life Victorian soldier, writer and explorer who would have been more at home in the 20th century rather than his own time. Fawn Brodie's biography is a superb read and I recommend it highly.
