Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Through Persia on a Side-Saddle
My information, however, may claim to be correct as far as it goes, my brother, Captain Sykes, who has travelled for some years in Persia on Government service, having revised my manuscript.
As I believe that I am the first European woman who has visited Kerman and Persian Baluchistan, my experiences may perhaps interest other women who feel the Wander lust but are unable to gratify their longing for adventure.
My thanks are due to Haji Khan, a member of his High ness the Farman Farma's suite, and to the Armenian photo grapher at Tehran for several of the illustrations in this book, while the rest were taken by my brother and myself.
