Father Zahm, a Holy Cross priest and scientist who wrote travel books as H. J. Mozans, follows the old route east from Berlin down the Danube, through the Bosphorus and Constantinople, past Troy and across Anatolia, and on to Baghdad and the ruins of Babylon. He mixes landscape with history, legend, the life of the Turks and the state of the Eastern churches.
