6" x 9.25" Tall 0393320391 910 pp. Index. Biblio. Maps. B&W photos. When Isable Arundell, a schoolgirl and scion of England's most distinguished Catholic family, first saw Richard Burton at a seaside resort, he had already made his mark as a linquist, scholar, soldier, explorer. When she turned and saw him staring after her, she decided that she would marry him. By their next meeting, Burton had become the first infidel to infiltrate Mecca as one of the faithful and, in an expedition to discover the source of the Nile, would soon be the first white man to lee Lake Tanganyika.
