Summary: Inspiration for students of the Near East
Comment: For those people involved in Middle Eastern studies, a background of those people who founded and developed the English-speaking world's studies of the region is of real interest, and, indeed, inspiration. This book contains seven essays, one each on Simon Ockley, Sir William Jones, E.W.Lane, E.H.Palmer, E.G.Browne and on R.A.Nicholson. In the case of Browne and Nicholson, the essays are a personal tribute of the author to his teacher (Nicholson) and his teacher's teacher (Browne). Inspirational, but very, very over-priced, sadly.
