A Jewish Christian convert, Joseph Wolff (1795-1862) served as a missionary in the Middle East, India, and the United States, suffering shipwreck, enslavement, and a 600-mile march without clothing following a robbery. Published in 1861, this work, though characteristically orientalist, remains an invigorating read.
