DESCRIPTION

First edition of The Modern History of Kuwait 1750–1965 by historian Ahmad Mustafa Abu-Hakima, published in London by Luzac & Company in 1983. This substantial historical study traces Kuwait’s development from the rise of the Al-Sabah in the 18th century through the political, commercial and social changes that shaped the country up to 1965. Abu-Hakima drew on archival records, Arabic manuscripts, contemporary sources and personal interviews, making this an important scholarly work on the formation and development of modern Kuwait.

The book includes historic black-and-white photographs, maps, genealogical material, appendices, bibliography and index, with chapters covering Kuwait’s early political and economic growth, regional relations, trade, the reign of Mubarak Al-Sabah and Kuwait’s development through the mid-20th century. This copy retains its original illustrated dust jacket and is in very good vintage condition, with only light age-related wear to the jacket and book.
