A celebrated work of Middle Eastern travel literature by British explorer Wilfred Thesiger, documenting his years living among the Marsh Arabs of southern Iraq during the 1950s. Through vivid firsthand accounts and remarkable historical photography, Thesiger captures the traditional customs, reed-built homes, waterways, and daily lives of communities inhabiting the marshlands between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. Originally published in 1964, the book remains an important record of a way of life profoundly transformed in subsequent decades.

This 2000 HarperCollins hardcover edition features the original photographic dust jacket and a black cloth binding with gold lettering. In good pre-owned condition, with wear to the dust jacket, including a noticeable area of loss along the lower front edge and minor wear around the corners. The hardcover binding remains attractive, and the interior pages and photographic illustrations appear well preserved.
