About the author

Sir Richard Francis Burton

1821–1890

Restless, brilliant, and often controversial, this Victorian adventurer turned a life of extreme travel into books that still feel bold and unpredictable. He is best known for exploring widely across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, and for bringing major translated works such as the Arabian Nights to English-language readers.
