A bountifully illustrated travel account of Eastern Turkey and Iraq. Jebb and her friend “travelled by train (second class) as far as the Anatolian plateau in Turkey, then on horseback over the Taurus mountains and across the Euphrates to Mesopotamia. To reach Baghdad, they floated down the Tigris on a raft made from 260 inflated goatskins.” (Robinson, Wayward Women, p.49).
