G. T. PUTNAM & CO
I Will publish Thursday, September 25, Bur
j ton's Pilgrimage to Mecca und the tomb
i tf the Prophet, with introduction by Bay
-1 artl Taylor. 1 vol. 12m0., with illuetra
-1 lions 81 50.
I The history of this curious boy is as follows:
Burton, an officer in the East India Com
pany, having by a long residence in Upper
India, acquired a perfect knowledge of the
Oriental languages and customs, projected a
visit under the auspices of thp Royal Geo
graphical Society, to the holy city of Mecca
and the tomb of the Prophet at Medina,
places rarely if ever beloie visted by any
Englishman. This ho successfully accom
plished in 1853-4, disguised as a Moham
medan Dervish. The history of the prilgriin
nge is not surpassed in interest and origmhl
| tly by any book or travel ever published—
. embracing Ids residence at Cairo as a Mo
liaiiimedati Student ; the journey across Ihe
desert with the great annual caravan of Pil
grims; the visit to ihe tomb of Mohammed ;
the discovery that the Sacred black stone is
an aeroliie ; the annual sermon preached at
Mecca lo an estimated audience of 150,000
Pilgrims gathered from all parts of the Mos
lem worlil ; nls narrow escapes from detec
tion,"and the only accurate account of the
ceiemontes of the Musselman faith.
To the religious community this work fur
nishes information never before made pub
lic, respecting the ceremonial laws of a largo
. proportion of the Eastern World; while lor
i general interest, Burton's narrative will com
! pare favorably with either Eolhen or Cres
j cent ami lite Cross.
