'It will thus be seen that this edition is very complete, as it has the various appendices from all the past editions. There is also a full index. As in the second edition [1857] there are thirty-four chapters instead of the original thirty-five, owing to two being made appendices, 'The Damascus Caravan' being numbered as a separate chapter' (Penzer). Burton's classic account was first published in 1855. Penzer, p.54.

Seconda edizione (la prima è del 1880, stampata privatamente da Quaritch). Dalla prefazione, scritta da Isabel Burton (moglie dell’A.): “On the return journey from Meccah, when Richard Burton could secure any privacy, he composed the following exquisite gem of Oriental poetry, and called it “The Kasidah”. by Haji Abdu al-Yazdi, which was one of his Eastern noms-de-plume.. “The Kasidah” was written in 1853. It is a poem of extraordinary power, on the Nature and Destiny of Man, anti-Christian and Pantheistic. So much wealth of Oriental learning has rarely been compressed into so small a compass..”. “Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890), viaggiatore e scrittore inglese. Per alcuni anni in India, compì (1853) un viaggio alla Mecca travestito da pellegrino; e quindi in Somalia riuscendo a raggiungere Harrar, non ancora visitata da Europei (1854). Parti’ quindi con Speke alla ricerca delle sorgenti del Nilo e scoprì il lago Tanganica (1858). Fu poi in California e nuovamente in Africa, dove salì per primo il M. Camerun. Lasciò importanti relazioni delle sue esplorazioni”, così Diz. Treccani,II, p. 561-62. Bella edizione in tiratura limitata di sole 100 copie numerate. La ns., 46, è in ottimo stato, con barbe.
8vo, viii, 488 pages, frontispiece and 12 plates, 2 color maps, 1 foldout, Original Publisher's blue cloth, solid hinges, original yellow endpapers, all edges gilt. In very good condition. THE RAREST OF ISABEL BURTON'S BOOKS. Very good condition. This book was in essence an account of Isabel and Richard's Tour of India in the late 1870's. It includes political observations written by Richard but purporting to be Isablel's views on the partition of Turkey. The original source documents for this book, now with the Isabel Burton papers at the Wiltshire Records Office are entirely in Richard Burton's handwriting.
1 double leaf, with portrait illustration of Burton. Printed in 1921. Seldom found in such pristine and original condition, like new. Measuring 9 inches x 5.5 inches in its folded state, this leaflet is very well preserved. Verso comprises a subscription for annual donation. A rare and lovely item! This is a rare and original prospectus, a national appeal for annual subscription to the Burton Memorial Fund, with list of committee members, and subscription form to verso. Illustration represents Frederic Leighton's portrait of the late Captain Richard Burton. As a memorial, Burton's wife Isabel set up an Arab tent in stone and marble at Mortlake Cemetery and set up the 'Burton Memorial Lecture Fund', which was eventually inaugurated in 1921. Sir Burton and his wife Isabel have been laid to rest there since the late 1890’s.
Authentic Facsimile Limited Edition of 750 copies produced by Pierway Publishing. This production mirrors the original in exacting detail. The book is almost completely hand made. It is printed on acid-free, vellum paper with maroon dutch comb endpapers, smyth-sewn in the traditional way and bound in morocco textured red gilt cloth. Book is in FINE Condition. This book is Richard F. Burton's rarest book and there are only 6 copies in Libraries worldwide. One copy showed up on Portobello Road in London a few years ago and another one in New England and both disappeared quickly in private collections. Elusive and rare, Burton supposedly was paid very little by the war office to acknowledge his authorship. The book never caught on in England but the Prussian Army bought most of the copies to train their troops as it was considered the best work on the use of the Bayonet at the time. It is rumored that a fire in the Prussian barracks destroyed most copies which would account for the book's rarity today.
