A seeming contradiction, Gertrude Bell was both a proper Victorian and an intrepid explorer of the Arabian wilderness. She was a close friend of T. E.

The Desert and the Sown is a chronicle, illustrated by over 160 photos, of Bell’s 1905 journey from Jericho to Antioch, a land of warring tribes under Turkish control.
