Twelve Days: An Account of a Journey Across the Bakhtiari Mountains in South-Western Persia.
An engrossing account by Sackville-West of a journey she took with her husband through Bakhtiari country. Her husband Harold Nicolson was stationed in Tehran from 1925 to 1927 and she frequently visited him there as well as often journeying to Isfahan. She wrote several works on Persia and was enamoured by the country, and in this work pays particular attention to the Bakhtiari people and their lands such as the city of Malamir (Izeh) and its surrounding country.
This work was published in the middle of her relationship with Virginia Woolf, hence its publication at the Hogarth Press, and it is said Sackville-West's absences on her journeys to Persia inspired Woolf to write To the Lighthouse.
First edition; 8vo (22 x 15 cm); 32 photograph plates, a little light spotting; publisher's decorated cloth, gilt lettering to spine, a touch of rubbing to extremities, a very good copy; 142, [2]pp.
