The surgeon William Ainsworth 1807-96 acted as the geologist of the 1835 Euphrates Expedition, his account of which is also reissued in this series. The expedition was regarded as unsuccessful, as Ainsworth had massively overspent the budget originally allotted by the sponsors, and his secret activities were discovered by the Ottoman authorities, but the work remains a vivid account of the area.
