Dear Suha
Denis Wright's The Persians Amongst The British provides interesting episodes about Iranian travellers who visiterd Britain in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries. "The Royame of Perse" written by J. E. Heseltine and "Persia as Seen By the West" written by L. Lockhart, both in Legacy of Persia (ed. ) Arthur J.Arberry are very useful. Pleasse also read Hamid Algar's Malkum Khan.

I would like know if there is any
literature/accounts/writings by local people in the
West (Europe/North America) about non-Western visitors
who either studied, were exiled to Western cities, or,
for some reason, happened to visit for a long time
during the 18-19th century, or earlier. 

Also, if you can suggest material related to writings
about non-Westerners visiting other non-Western
countries (or vise versa: writings about Westerners
visiting non-Western places), that would be great too. 

I can easily find material about travel writings (i.e.
people who wrote about their travels), but I am having
difficulty locating any writings of people who
met/encountered visitors/tourists/students passing by
their cities? Any clues, suggestions, please let me
know. 

THX to all & happy holidays,
