Erstausgabe Signiert
First UK edition. Frontispiece plus 52 plates, double page map, further illustrations in text. 8vo. Publisher's turquoise cloth stamped in gilt. Signed by Stark, who has also written out the title of the book, on the bookplate of J. E. Davies, affixed to front pastedown. Spine tanned but overall a very good copy. xiv, 269, [1]pp. London, John Murray, The first UK edition of Stark's first book, signed by the author. The text was first published by the Times Press in Baghdad in 1932. Stark enjoyed a worldly upbringing in Paris and Italy before returning to England to train as a nurse. She later learned Arabic at the School of Oriental Studies, and would become one of the greatest female travellers of the twentieth century. ?In 1929 she moved to Baghdad, where she went slumming in Arab clothing and was an outsider among priggish British expatriates? (ODNB). During this time she made two journeys into the mountains of western Iran. The first took her to Luristan, which lies between Harsin and Khorramabad. Her second trip was to Ilam and the Kabirkuh mountains. The War Office made maps based on the information she brought back and her profile in the expat community rose as a result. Jane Robinson, in her work Wayward Women, describes Stark thus, ?In all her journeys she has been able to distill and communicate a rich philosophy of travel and to illustrate the art of travelling in time as well as place. She carries the past with her . always teaching and learning at the same time. She is, quite simply, a classic.? Each chapter of Baghdad Sketches evidences her potential as a travel writer. The last two, pertaining to the Yezidis and Kuwait respectively, are especially gem-like in finish and beauty. Howgego, S61; Robinson, Wayward Women, pp 28-30; Arcadian Library 15448.
