Beschreibung
First edition. 8vo. Original green cloth. Dust-jacket, priced 25s. A very good first edition of Philby's account of his journey from Central Asia to the Indian Ocean, in his role as Ibn Saud's official advisor. An important work, notable for Philby being the first European to enter Abha, capital of Najran, the frontier district between the Wahhabis and the Yemenites, and the second to visit Shabwa, where he was the first to thoroughly examine the city's ruins. Internally very good; cloth faded at spine and top edges; jacket clipped at inner front flap but price still present, a little chipped at top edges, closed tear to top edge of upper panel, rubbed at lower joint and with some light scratching visible to lower panel.
