This travelogue by British diplomat Claudius James Rich provides a vivid account of his adventures in the Middle East during the early 19th century. Part memoir, part historical and archaeological exploration, the book chronicles Rich's exploration of the ancient city of Nineveh and his travels throughout modern-day Iraq and Iran. Along the way, he encounters a range of cultures and peoples, from Kurdish tribes to Persian rulers. Rich's vivid descriptions and keen observations make this an essential read for scholars and armchair travelers alike.
