1st edition. Hardcover. Original green cloth with gilt spine lettering, tiny areas of paling, pages and over 100 illustrations and maps very clean, trifling flecking to the text blocks, in a clean, unclipped dustjacket, a little nibbling at the spine ends and corners. Overall, a near fine copy. Accompanying the book are two scarce articles by Thesiger, the first in the September 1954 issue of The Geographical Journal, in fine condition, containing his ten-page article entitled 'The Marshmen of Southern Iraq', with 20 of his photographs, in which he recounts his travels around the junction of the Tigris and the Euphrates, during which he came to know intimately the Marsh Arabs of this unique landscape; the second in the February 1958 issue of The National Geographic Magazine containing his 34-page article with maps and 29 photographs, 18 in colour taken by Gavin Maxwell, which Thesiger has signed on the front cover and again at the first page of the article. Together, all three items provide a fitting record of the last remnants of a proud people and their culture, and as a trio are exceedingly scarce.
