Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 1st edition, 2nd impression. In black cloth boards with rather dramatic red & green stamping and red lettering. Boards have some edge wear and bumping to extremities, with rubbing and a little puckering to the cloth at the foot of the spine. Former library copy; vestiges of what appears to be a Boots library label on the front board and library label pasted down on rear end paper. Uncut pages are somewhat toned to the page block edge and the foremost and rearmost pages are lightly foxed. A smattering of foxing within but generally very good. A fascinating book with remarkable photos which are in very good condition.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo. George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd, London, UK. 1928. 313 pgs. Illustrated with Black and White Plates. Later Printing. Bound in decorated cloth with gilt titles present to the spine. Boards have wear present to the extremities of the boards. Foxing present to the text block. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. This book describes the journey that the author and his wife took together from their home in New York City to distant Arabia in the 1920s. At the beginning of the book, Seabrook describes some of his motivations for making the trip. He tells us that he had always been fascinated with Arabia, ever since he was a child. He also provides us with perhaps the best definition of simple tourism I have ever encountered, "I went for no useful, moral, scholarly, political humanitarian, or reasonable purpose whatsoever. I went for the joy of it, and because I believed I should love it." As we read further, however, it begins to become clear that perhaps Seabrook did have an ulterior motive after all. Whether by design or by fate, Seabrook's itinerary took him from one religious leader to another. Even when the persons he was staying with were not known primarily for their religious leadership, Seabrook constantly plied them with questions about their faith. He was a seeker, on a pilgrimage to learn all he could from the great variety of men of faith in the Middle East. EB; 9.0 X 6.0 X 1.0 inches; 347 pages; Hardcover. 8vo. George G. Harrap & Co.

First Edition
London, Harrap, [192?]. 8vo. Original black cloth, spine lettered in red, front cover illustrated in green and red; pp. 312, [2], plates after photographs, illustrations in the text after drawings by Miss A. G. Peck; light marking to cloth, a little offsetting from endpapers and frontispiece (resulting in light spotting to title-page; a very good copy. Scarce first UK edition. In 1924 Seabrook travelled to Arabia and enjoyed the hospitality of various tribes of Bedouin, Druze and the Kurdish Yezidi. In the first part of the book, Seabrook seeks out Mithqal Al-Fayez and lives with him and his tribe for several months. When the topic of religion came to them in conversation, Seabrook admitted to Mithqal that he didn't believe in the Trinity, but rather in the oneness of god, and that god sent many prophets including Muhammad; on hearing this, Mithqal asked if William would like to enter Islam and William agreed, with him repeating the Shahada after Mithqal shortly after. In this slightly overlooked book - due to its rarity and Seabrook's overshadowing reputation as occultist, alcoholic, friend of some Surrealists and his countercultural credentials - is much about the Druze community and their leaders, with good illustrations. In the Acknowledgements Seabrook mentions gratefully 'Ali Bey Obeyid, civil judge of Souieda, in the Mountain of the Druses, Sitt Nazira el Jumblatt, the Veiled Lady of Mukhtara, Suleiman Bey Izzedin, the Druse historian, and Daoud Izzedin, his son' (p. 7).
