About the author

Gertrude Lowthian Bell

1868–1926

An adventurous writer, archaeologist, and political figure, she moved far beyond the expectations of her age and helped shape Western understanding of the Middle East. Her letters, travel books, and reports bring together sharp observation, courage, and a deep curiosity about places and people.
