PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
An intrepid traveler at the height of British colonial gallivanting in the 1930s, Freya Stark's many books became instant classics. This account of Stark's search for Shabwa, the heretofore unexplored oasis on the Yemeni incense road, shows all the verve of her best accounts: witty, rapturous and full of incident.
