Through Spain to the Sahara is a travelogue written by Matilda Betham Edwards in 1868. The book chronicles her journey through Spain and her subsequent trip to the Sahara desert. Edwards provides a detailed account of her experiences, including her observations of the people, landscapes, and cultures she encounters along the way. Edwards' journey through Spain takes her to many different cities, including Madrid, Toledo, and Seville. She describes the architecture, art, and history of each place, as well as the local customs and traditions. After leaving Spain, Edwards travels to North Africa and the Sahara desert. She recounts her experiences in vivid detail, describing the harsh conditions of the desert and the nomadic tribes that call it home. Edwards also reflects on the cultural differences between Europe and Africa, and the impact of colonialism on the region. Throughout the book, Edwards provides insights into the social and political issues of her time, including the role of women in society and the effects of imperialism. Through Spain to the Sahara is a fascinating and informative account of a woman's travel adventures in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
