    Interesting perspective but biased because of the time period it was written in.

  2. M Fathima Saira –

    The author has been too descriptive and verbose. Lost interest somewhere in the middle.

    I appreciate the first-hand account, but wish there were more maps and illustrations. Hard to visualize some places.

    Buchanan’s account is a treasure trove for historians. It’s a bit academic, but the knowledge is invaluable.

    Buchanan’s journey is fascinating, but the writing style is dense and challenging. Still, worth it for the historical insights.
