Item description from seller

An official RGS reprint in the original blue printed wraps 16x25cm, pages numbered pp441-470 including 4 b/w maps and 1 section + (2)pp containing 6 b/w photos. Inscribed "With the Author's compliments" to the front wrap. Wraps and interiors very good, lightly creased with foxing, and a short ink double-sideline to the margin of p442. Anglo-Persian Oil Company geologist George Martin Lees surveyed Oman during 1925-26. This report describes findings from a mission organised by Arnold Wilson, supported by John Cadman (APOC), and conducted by Lees with fellow geologist K. Washington Gray, Hajji Abdulla Williamson (political agent), Captain GJ Eccles (of the Muscat State Levies), Joseph Fernandez (Indian botanist and collector), and B.S. (Bertram) Thomas (Financial Minister to the Sultan of Oman) who is here credited with the photos. The appendices describe the water supply of Bahrain, Qatar, insects, birds and flint implements collected. The paper was presented to the RGS on 16 Jan 1928.
