Açıklama
This book tells the remarkable story of a woman who, despite astounding achievements, has remained strangely obscure until now. Lady Anne Blunt is probably best known for her family connections and for her tempestuous marriage to the poet Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, with whom she travelled to the tribal regions of the Euphrates, to the Nejd and the Central Arabian Nafud desert. Anne sketched and wrote as she confronted the dangers of tribal warfare, painting watercolours in rare moments of peace. She is the first European woman to make a recorded journey to Central Arabia. Among her many achievements was the rescue of the Arab horse from the ill effects of indiscriminate breeding, ignorance and neglect. She is regarded by many equine authorities as the saviour of the true thoroughbred Arabian . This biography is a deeply researched and engagingly told record of a noble life.
