A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

No one can know the Shareefa of Wazan and fail to be impressed by her. Those who have known her long, and are acquainted with the way in which she acted, in a position somewhat difficult, during the first years of her married life, are filled with admiration for her tact. All her friends know her kindliness; but few of them suspected that she had the power to have produced so interesting a book. Some one has said (J cul baz, the A rabs have it) that every one has a good book in the recesses of his heart, if he will only but sit down and write. The production of the one good book does not of course constitute its producer a writer in the strict sense of the word. Two things are necessary to him who has the one good book in his stomach, as the French say humour and simpleness of heart. The Shareefa certainly has both, together with a power of observation quite beyond the common run. Our countrymen and countrywomen seldom are natural either in writing or in speech. In fact, so rare is perfect naturalness to Englishmen, that it is commonly considered to be affectation, by those who have been affected all their lives.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
