About the book

This volume brings together two of Wilfred Thesiger's classic works of travel and exploration. Arabian Sands recounts his journeys across the Empty Quarter with Bedouin companions, while The Marsh Arabs describes life among the communities of southern Iraq. Both works combine vivid landscape writing with deep respect for traditional societies facing rapid change.
