From Bombay to Bushire and Bussora is a travelogue written by William Ashton Shepherd, detailing his journey from Bombay (now Mumbai) to Bushire and Bussora, including his observations on the present state of Persia and notes on the Persian War. Shepherd was a British civil servant who traveled extensively throughout the region in the mid-19th century, and his account offers a fascinating glimpse into the political and cultural landscape of the time. The book covers a wide range of topics, from the natural beauty of the landscape to the customs and traditions of the people he encountered, as well as the political tensions and conflicts that were unfolding in the region. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Persia and the surrounding areas, and offers a unique perspective on the region during a pivotal period in its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
