Description
Letters from Syria is the incredible wartime story of the British explorer Freya Stark, having travelled extensively throughout the middle east in the inter war years, travelling further and more widely then any western explorer had done previously. joining the British Ministry of Information at the out break of World War II, she helped spread propaganda to the Arab nations aimed at persuading the Arabs to support the Allies. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
