A few first observations:- That's a heck of a hike, across half of modern-day Turkey, down nearly the entire length of the Euphrates river, back up nearly the entire length of the Tigris river, and back across Turkey to the Black Sea.
- The word meander comes from the Meander river in Turkey, mentioned early in this book.
- This journey takes place through the heart of Persia - modern-day Turkey, Syria, and Iraq - particularly important places in the news these days.
