About The Book: Six Months in the Hejaz by John Fryer Thomas Keane is a vivid first-hand account of his journey as one of the few Europeans—and a convert to Islam—to complete the pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina in 1877. Blending adventure, cultural observation, and personal reflection, Keane details the rituals of Hajj, life in the holy cities, and the challenges he faced, including suspicion, injury, and disguise. The book offers rare 19th-century insights into Islamic practice and Arabian society from a Western perspective.
