SIX MONTHS IN MECCAH:
AN ACCOUNT OF
The Mohammedan Pilgrimage to Meccah recently performed by an Englishman
professing Mohammedanism.
BY J. F. KEANE (HAJJ MOHAMMED AMIN).
_At all Libraries and Book-sellers'._
The ATHENÆUM says:
"Those orthodox geographers who were startled by the American
outsider's successful walk into Africa will receive a hardly less
severe shock on learning that the pilgrimage to Meccah has been
performed by a youngster of five-and-twenty, apparently a sailor by
profession, and with none of the special training enjoyed by his few
predecessors.... The style of the work, if something eccentric and
unconventional, is amusingly direct and natural, and the occasional
digressions are as original and characteristic as the rest. His whole
narrative, indeed, is a series of pictures."
