Richard Burton's account of his trip from the Red Sea coast to Harar and back in 1854-55 is a great read that demonstrates Burton's powers of observation, vividly descriptive language, and genuine interest in the customs, beliefs, and day-to-day activities of indigenous people. In this book, Burton offers a real insight into the beliefs and way of life of the people he meets.
