This book is a beautifully illustrated account of a journey to the Islamic world by two American travelers. The authors, Blanche McManus and Francis Miltoun, explored many of the great cities of the Ottoman Empire, including Istanbul, Baghdad, Cairo, and Jerusalem. They provide a vivid description of the landscapes, architecture, and people they encountered, as well as their thoughts on the cultural and political issues of their time. This is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the Islamic world and its history.
