Bag om From Berlin To Bagdad And Babylon (1922)

""From Berlin to Bagdad and Babylon"" is a travelogue written by John Augustine Zahm, a Catholic priest and scientist, detailing his journey through Europe and the Middle East in 1914-1915, just before the outbreak of World War I. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part covering Zahm's travels through Germany, Austria, Hungary, and the Balkans, while the second part covers his travels through Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran. Along the way, Zahm describes the people, culture, and history of the places he visits, as well as his encounters with various religious and political figures. He also provides insights into the geopolitical tensions and rivalries that were brewing in the region at the time, which would ultimately lead to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the redrawing of the Middle East. Overall, ""From Berlin to Bagdad and Babylon"" is a fascinating and informative account of a bygone era, offering a unique perspective on the events that shaped the modern Middle East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
