Product Description

Review

Reviews for ‘Wilfred Thesiger: The Life of the Great Explorer’ by Alex Maitland

‘Meticulous research is illuminated by Maitland's evocations of Thesiger’s affinity with a world characterised by desert romance.’ Sunday Telegraph

‘This book is a worthy testament to an exceptional life – and as an authorised biography it is also the last cry of Thesiger himself, someone who evoked complete worlds of brutal majesty now denied the rest of us forever.’ Independent on Sunday

‘Masterly.’ The Times

‘In his long and extraordinary life Wilfred Thesiger was compared to the greatest travellers of the Victorian age…Maitland captures that strange attractiveness, his undoubted love and understanding of a now-vanished world.’ Financial Times

‘What makes Maitland’s book so worthwhile are the letters which Thesiger wrote home to his devoted mother Kathleen.’ Spectator

‘This thorough biography will be fascinating to Thesiger aficionados.’ Mail on Sunday

‘Maitland has done justice to an extraordinary subject.’ Scotsman
