Richard Francis Burton
The talented British linguist, ethnologist and explorer Richard F. Burton (1821–90) was one of the first Europeans to visit Mecca and survive to tell the tale. This lively three-volume account, published 1855–6, vividly describes his experiences in 1853, when he travelled there under the disguise of a pilgrim.
