Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wayfarers in the Libyan Desert
The price, part of which is usually paid in advance and the remainder after the journey is finished, is naturally dependent on the size of the caravan.
The comfort in which one travels de pends in part upon the amount of money expended, but in great measure upon the executive ability and honesty of the drago man. As the licensed dragoman would be answerable if any accident were to befall a party under his charge, every precaution is taken. As the guards patrol before the tents in the silent, starlit nights, one feels as safe as in a crowded city - quite as safe and much happier.
