Description
Mecca is the most forbidden of Holy Cities. Many Muslim historians and geographers have studied it–and countless pilgrims and travelers have left behind lively and well-publicized accounts of life in the city. The stories of all these figures–holy men and heathen alike–are collected here to offer a remarkably revealing literary portrait of the city’s traditions and urban life.
