## Description

Francis Bedford was commissioned by Queen Victoria to accompany the future King Edward VII on his tour of the Middle East in spring 1862. This lavishly illustrated and beautifully produced book traces their route through Egypt, Palestine, Turkey and Greece, using Bedford’s photographs alongside extracts from the Prince’s diary and other newly discovered archival material, published here for the first time. In often stifling heat, Bedford produced over 200 negatives, including images of architecture and stunning landscapes, as well as portraits of those he encountered on the tour – both local inhabitants and members of the royal party.

Review: Fascinating glimpse into the past - I saw the exhibition at the Queen's Gallery and was amazed with the details Bedford had captured during the trip. The book is well put together with lots of auxiliary supporting material to give context to the photographs. It complements the exhibition beautifully while being complete in itself.
Review: It was time... - Bedford's photographs of the Middle East are very good and interesting! But they were not available in a comprehensive book. It's done, now! Very well edited and printed! A Barreto

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice book
*by M***T on 14 September 2013*

I love ancient Egypt so this is needed for my collection of books. Fantastic insight to Egypt before all the monuments were dug out and a rare insight to those heady days of discovery. I think they do convey a feeling of how exotic foreign places were before the world could be brought into your home by clicking on a link on your ipad.
