About The Book: Six Months in Meccah by T. F. Keane is a rare and daring travel account of the author's secret journey to the holy city of Mecca during the Hajj pilgrimage in 1877. Disguised as a Muslim from Bombay, Keane documents Islamic rituals, daily life, and the spiritual atmosphere of Mecca with vivid observation. His knowledge of Hindustani and Islamic customs helped him avoid suspicion. The book offers unique insights into 19th-century Islamic society from a Western yet deeply respectful perspective.
