Fine Facsimile Reprint. An exceptional gilt-blocked, cloth copy on simile vellum boards. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new, still in publisher's protective wrapping.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 134 pages; Description: xliv, 134 p., 1 l. incl. plates. plates, 2 maps (1 fold. in pocket) 25 cm. Subjects: Najd (Saudi Arabia) --Description and travel --Travel literature. Series: Argonaut Press, no.16. Notes: originally published: London, The Argonaut Press, 1938. Summary: Guarmani was one of the earliest European travelers to visit Central Arabia. The translation is made from the original Italian text of 1866. Guarmani went, commissioned to buy Arab stallions for the French Government and for the King of Italy, to Najd. He had a wider vision than the average horse-coper, and he records an interesting tale of conditions in the Desert Peninsula at a moment when the rival dynasties - Rashidan and Saudian - were contending for supremacy. The book is a revised edition of that originally published by the Arab Bureau Cairo - for official use only - in 1917, and considering the comparative rarity of this edition as also of the original Jerusalem text, the present reissue by the Argonaut Press should be of interest to all, especially to those familiar with Arabia and its people. 1 Kg.
