Book Description
Excerpt from Arminius Vambery: His Life and Adventures "A most fascinating work, full of interesting and curious experiences." - Contemporary Review. "It is partly an autobiographic sketch of character, partly an account of a singularly daring and successful adventure in the exploration of a practically unknown country. In both aspects it deserves to be spoken of as a work of great interests and of considerable merit." - Saturday Review. "We can follow M. Vambery's footsteps in Asia with pride and pleasure: we welcome every word he has to tell us about the ethnography and the languages of the East." - Academy. "The character and temperament of the writer come out, well in his quaint and vigorous style... The expressions, too, in English, of modes of thought and reflections cast in a different mould from our own gives additional piquancy to the composition, and, indeed, almost seems to bring out unexpected capacities in the language." - Athenaeum. "Has all the fascination of a lively romance. It is the confession of an uncommon man; an intensely clever, extraordinarily energetic egotist, well-informed, persuaded that he is in the right and impatient of contradiction." - Daily Telegraph. "The work is written in a most captivating manner, and illustrates the qualities that should be possessed by the explorer." - Novoe Vremya, Moscow. "We are glad to see a popular edition of a book, which, however it be regarded, must be pronounced unique. The writer, the adventures, and the style are all extraordinary - the last not the least of the three. It is flowing and natural - a far better style than is written by the majority of English travellers." - St. James's Gazette About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
