Previously Published. Hardback with DJ. Saira Elizabeth Luiza Shah (née Bessie Louise MacKenzie) (1892-1960) was a Scottish writer who wrote under the pen name Morag Murray Abdullah. She met the Pashtun author, poet, diplomat, scholar, and savant Sirdar Ikbal Ali Shah and wrote a fictional account of her marriage and travels in the North-West Frontier Province of British India and the mountains of Afghanistan. Her husband, Sirdar Ikbal Ali Shah, was descended from the Sadaat of Paghman. During World War One, Bessie met him in Edinburgh, where he was studying medicine at Edinburgh Medical School. Overcoming the resistance of both their families, they married, and travelled a great deal, including visits to India. They had four children, among them the famed Sufi writer and translator Idries Shah. Writing under the pseudonym of "Morag Murray Abdullah", her first book, entitled 'My Khyber Marriage: Experiences of a Scotswoman as the Wife of a Pathan Chieftain's Son' was described as an autobiography, and told of meeting her husband, falling in love, and leaving behind her family and her safe middle-class Scottish family life, to travel to the war-torn North-West Frontier Province of British India and her chieftain husband's ancestral homeland in the high mountains of the Hindu Kush in Afghanistan. It described a Protestant woman learning and adapting to a Muslim culture, laws and rigid codes of honour. The author depicted a journey from the predictable into the unknown. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 272 pages.…
