Description:
London.: I.B.Tauris.. 1999.. Many stricking black and white photographic plates, 128pp, bibliography, index, hardback with dustjacket. Oblong quarto. This book "documents the period between 1900 and 1950, which saw Kuwait's emergence from a vunerable shaikhdom negotiating a precarious independece amongst neighbouring powers - the British in India and the Gulf, the Ottoman Turks in Mesopotamia, and the central Arabian chieftaincies of Ha'il and Riyadh - to a nation state with the highest per capita income in the world. It is an outstanding visual record of a crucial time before the centuries-old way of life, centering on pearling, fishing, boat-building and trade by land and sea, was swept away."
