Product Information
When Freya Stark traveled along the western coast of Turkey in 1952 she met only one other tourist; today, this region is the most popular in the country. Wandering beyond the boundaries of travel, Stark entered into the soul of ancient Ionia, examining the ever-present tensions between East and West and the elements of religion, society, and commerce that forged the culture of a civilization. Ionia is travel writing at its most elegant and history at its most dynamic--a powerful and beautifully-rendered classic of twentieth century literature.

Reviews
"Readers of Stark's reissued works...will find a writer who endows everyone in her field of vision with the heightened interest that she felt herself." -- The New Yorker "Freya Stark remains unexcelled as an interpreter of brief encounters in wild regions against the backdrop of history." -- The Observer "Dame Freya's was a passionate imagination, and her embrace of landscape was fierce... [She] was often called a 'travel writer'. The adjective, however, limits the accomplishment." -- The New York Times "It is enriching and enjoyable. If discovering the ancient history of the region is your bag rather than beer or baklava, then Freya Stark will be a most erudite companion." -- Londra Gazette "...it is beautiful writing that encapsulates not only the history, but the feel, the smell, the sensation and sheer wonder of what she discovers... enriching and enjoyable." -- London Turkish Gazette "Freya Stark has rightfully earned a place among the greatest travel writers of the 20th century. I.B.Tauris is releasing [A Winter in Arabia] alongside seven other works, as The Freya Stark Collection. A timely reminder of an extraordinary woman and a fine writer." -- Sunday Telegraph "It's hard to think of a writer in the travel game who most closely demonstrates the merits of Flaubert's three rules for good writing: clarity, clarity and finally clarity. Re-reading her now, her restrained powers of description shine as brightly as they ever did, and they will continue to shine until the next Ice Age... Her books are more relevant than ever. Besides sheer enjoyment, one should read her for a fresh perspective on the intractable issues dogging Christian-Muslim relations. She was able to see both sides and what she found was similarity, not difference. The greatest woman traveller of the 20th century? I think so." -- The Times "She was a vivid describer of scenes and landscapes. More, she was a connoisseur of people: she knew how to draw them out and listened closely when they spoke" -- Claudia Roth Pierpont, The New Yorker, "Readers of Stark's reissued works...will find a writer who endows everyone in her field of vision with the heightened interest that she felt herself." -- The New Yorker *Freya Stark remains unexcelled as an interpreter of brief encounters in wild regions against the backdrop of history.* -- The Observer *Dame Freya's was a passionate imagination, and her embrace of landscape was fierce...
