First Edition
First and only edition, the English version of the documentation of Saudi Arabia's controversial claim to the Buraimi oasis, the culmination of a longstanding territorial dispute with Abu Dhabi and Oman. Relatively well-represented institutionally, the complete set has never appeared at auction and is essential to the history of a clash that defined the territory and prosperity of the modern UAE. The confrontation began in 1949 with the first official Saudi claim to the Buraimi oasis, on the eastern edge of the Empty Quarter, territory shared between Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Oman. The revival of the oil industry following the end of the Second World War hastened the urgency for the demarcation of frontiers on the Arabian Peninsula. Tangible lines in the sand would ensure claims to the ownership of the oil reserves that lay underneath. Backed by Aramco, Saudi Arabia occupied part of the oasis by force in 1952, sparking a heated international debate. Deadlocked for several years, the dispute was taken to an international tribunal at Geneva, under the auspices of the British, before an armed intervention by the British -officered Trucial Oman Scouts precipitated a Saudi surrender in late 1955. The present work is Saudi Arabia's official submission to the Geneva tribunal, a fascinating mix of partisanship and serious academic study. Included is a detailed historical and geographic background to the region, legal arguments in favour of the Saudi claim, a breakdown of tribal divisions in the region, and lengthy appendices detailing tribal relationships and diplomatic communiques. The Memorial seeks to nullify claims to tribal loyalties towards the rulers of Abu Dhabi, asserting that "the tribe of the 'Bani Yas' is a fiction" (p. 68), and to undermine the British protectoral arrangements in the Gulf, pointing to the search for mineral resources being the reason for their "sudden interest in territorial matters about which they knew little and cared less" (pp. 521-2). The Memorial was largely derived from the work of George Rentz (1912-1987). Rentz was an adept American historian of the region, rising to prominence as the head of Aramco's Research and Translation Division , subsequently becoming an adviser to the Saudi government and joining the Saudi delegation to Geneva as a technical expert in 1955. Although the present work is a political document seeking a partisan outcome, Rentz's reputation for independence and impartiality remains. He is remembered as "a careful and diligent scholar of Arabic and Islam, and as awalking compendium of Arabian erudition" (Facey, p. 13). This set containsextensive contemporarily pencilled listings of page references verso of the rear free endpapers of Volumes I and II. The reader's interests seem to have concentrated on Zakat, "religious considerations", and inevitably the "Boundary dispute". William Facey, 'George Rentz and the Birth of Wahhabism in Saudi Arabia', in The Birth of the Islamic Reform Movement in Saudi Arabia: Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahh b (1703/4 1792) and the Beginnings of Unitarian Empire in Arabia, 2004. Three volumes, quarto. Original green half roan, green cloth boards, raised bands to spines ruled in blind, lettered in gilt in compartments, marbled endpapers, green speckled edges, binder's tickets of Tourian Bros of Cairo on front pastedowns. With half-tone plates from photographs and 4 folding maps in end-pocket of vol. II. Brown roan labels lettered "H.R.A." in gilt to foot of spines. Extremities a little bumped and rubbed, wear to corners of vol. II, negligible splash mark to top edge of vol. I, edges very slightly foxed, inner hinges cracked, contents firm, endpapers reinforced at gutters, a very good and attractive copy.
