FLOWERED MEN AND GREEN SLOPES OF ARABIA

Over a period of eight years, the author traveled about half a million kilometers to witness first-hand, the living sources of an unexpectedly diverse and rich Arabia.nnThierry Mauger, accompanied by his wife Danielle, has previously expressed his passion for Saudi Arabia (“In the shadow of the black tents” 1986, Tihama. “The Bedouins of Arabia” 1987, Souffles). In this book, he explores space and time in an adventure with the wonderful natural environment of southern Arabia and its people, heirs to this region’s great civilizations.nnHis faithfully-recorded travel journal, together with the enchanting colours of his photographs, admirably portray a world on the verge of a radical transformation.n
