I've read the Arabic version of this book , and it was good , contains lot of nice adventures but for me I didn't like some of the things inside it , so it was bit boring for me , but it was okay

Not as well-written as "A Woman in Arabia". However, the fact that most of this no longer exists due to the current war in Syria makes this worthy of a push from 3.5 to 4.

My ebook copy was not a good one but I kept on reading despite the missing letters and annoying formatting (the ebook was a free, now in the pubic domain one). I enjoyed every word, every stops she made, the people she met, the weather descriptions, the desert, the archaeological ruins she looked for. I learned a lot while being entertained. Her travel took her from Jerusalem to Antioch from February to April 1905. A little more than 100 years ago. The sites she saw and described much have disappeared, have been destroyed by time, war, pillage. It was like watching through a tiny window all the way to that point in time.
