Wilfred Thesiger – Arabian Sands – 1960 edition

AED300

An attractive and bright example of the 1960 edition of this Arabian travel classic, describing Thesiger’s journeys across the Empty Quarter in the 1940s.

With numerous B&W photographs showing the author’s stunning images of the region at the time, including locations in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and other parts of the UAE.

In very good condition. Hardback with original dust jacket, with some edgewear and light staining. Contents clean and bright with no writing or marking inside.

Published by Readers Union in 1960, shortly after the 1959 publication of the first edition by Longmans. Now hard to find with the jacket.
