Short description:
This article by Eduard Glaser (1855-1908) is based on diary entries on his second journey to Yemen (April 1885 - February 1886). It includes a preliminary sketch-map of the regions visited by Glaser during his first and second research sojourns.
Eduard Glaser provides a detailed account of his trip from Ḥudayda to Ṣanʿāʾ - via Bāǧil, Bohaḥ, Ḥoǧayla, Menāḫa, Mefḥak, Sūq el-Ḫamīs, Metne and Mind.
Based on his field research, Glaser also criticises David Heinrich M�ller's edition of al-Hamdānī's geography of the Arabian Peninsula 'Ṣifat Ǧazīrat al-ʿArab', characterising it as 'not very reliable' (pp. 6 & 8); he feels compelled to make corrections to the spelling of names and places.
