Seller's Description:
VG. 8vo. original printed paper wraps (a little rubbed & creased, slight sunning and leaning to spine, a little spotting to top edge); pp. viii (last blank), 326, with a map. A very good copy.
A wonderful account of Freya Stark's time in Arabia escorting two female scientists. One an archaeologist and the other a geologist.
The map was a bit misleading until I realized it wasn't of her trip but of some one else's, I think.
Now I want to learn all there is to know about Yemen.
