From the Black Sea: Through Persia and India is Edwin Lord Weeks’ compelling account of his extensive travels across three distinct regions of the Eastern world. This historical travel narrative captures the author’s firsthand observations of the diverse cultures, ancient landscapes, and vibrant peoples encountered throughout his journey.
