About this product
Product Information
Richard Burton's life offers dazzling riches. He was one of the greatest Victorian explorers, an innovative translator and brilliant linguist, a prolific travel writer, a pioneer in the fields of anthropology and sexual psychology, a mesmeric lover, a spy and a publisher of erotica. Fawn Brodie has created a vivid portrait of this remarkable man, who emerges from the richly textured fabric of his time. His travels to Mecca and Medina dressed as a Muslim pilgrim, his witnessing of the human sacrifices at Dahomey and his unlikely but loving partnership with his pious Catholic bride are all treated with warmth, scholarship and understanding.

- a***0 (598)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived in mint condition and was exactly as described by the seller. Sir Richard Burton was a larger than life Victorian soldier, writer and explorer who would have been more at home in the 20th century rather than his own time. Fawn Brodie's biography is a superb read and I recommend it highly.
