These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside A Pilgrimage to Nejd, Vol. 2 of 2 The Cradle of the Arab Race: Look inside the book: That Feysul's stud in its day was the best in Arabia is probable, and it may be that no collection now to be found there has an equal merit; but there seems little reason for supposing that it differed in anything but degree from what we ourselves saw, or that the animals composing it were distinct from those still owned by the various Bedouin tribes of Nejd. ...To the present day I am not quite sure that we heard all that happened, and so forbear entering upon the matter in detail; but as far as we could learn, Mohammed's vanity seems to have led him to aggrandise his own position in the eyes of Ibn Rashid's court, by representing us as persons whom he had taken under his protection, and who were in p. 19some way dependent on him; boasting that the camels, horses, and other property were his own, and our servants his people.
