Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1960, Kings and Camels is a straightforward account of how an American went to work in Saudi Arabia and came home to the US to realize how little the average American appreciated the strategic importance of Saudi Arabia and, more crucially still, how little he understood the people in the area. Grant Butler presents his material in the form of an informal account of his personal experiences in the Middle East, both while he lived there, working for the Arabian American Oil Company (ARAMCO), and as a successful lecturer and writer who has returned to the area often. The book goes behind the scenes in the Arab world, and into private audience with the legendary Ibn Saud. It explains Islam, the religion of the Arabs, and it introduces the reader to the desert Bedouin, and the Arab of the cities. Kings and Camels focuses on human interest, and on the Americans who lived and worked in Saudi Arabia. Above all, the book's emphasis is on the cultivation of understanding between the American and Arab peoples.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journeying from the green, rain-soaked Kerala into the amphitheatre of the Sun, our traveller-journalist finds that there is no better metaphor than the desert to instil the lessons of life and death, love and hatred, thirst and water. From a single shower of rain which brings the gaaf tree back to life after a decade to the ever-shifting dunes of gold and thousand-year-old sand palaces, the mysterious poetry of the desert is everywhere on display, if one but has the eye and heart to see it. As the deserts of Nafud, Dahna, and Rub’ al Khali in Arabia both embrace and trap the travellers, the outpouring of the landscape’s longing for rivers recalls a past filled with water. This narrative describes the history, prehistory, archaeology, legends, folklore, and travails of the émigré Asian work force that tames the harsh desert as never before.

Download or read book Camel Karma written by Ilse Köhler-Rollefson and published by Tranquebar. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to myth, the camel was created by Lord Shiva at the behest of his consort Parvati. Parvati shaped a strange five-legged animal from clay and asked Shiva to blow life into it. At first Shiva refused, saying that the misshapen animal will not fare well in the world, but later gave in. He folded the animal's fifth leg over its back giving it a hump, and commanded it to get up, "uth." That is how the animal got its name. The camel then needed someone to look after it, so Shiva rolled off a bit of skin and dust from his arm and made out of this the first Raika. Historically, the Raika of Rajasthan have had a unique and enduring relationship with camels. Their entire existence revolves around looking after the needs of these animals which, in turn, provide them with sustenance, wealth and companionship. When German veterinarian, Ilse Kohler-Rollefson, arrives in Rajasthan in 1991, she is Immediately enthralled by the Raikas' intimate relationship with their animals but also confronted with their existential problems. This is the story of the quest that follows to save a globally unique and humane animal culture and find a place for the camel in rapidly changing India. It is a journey that is often exasperating, sometimes funny, but keeps revealing unexpected layers of rural Rajasthani mores. A travelogue of a sort, this book takes us deeply into the diverse cultures that make Rajasthan such a fascinating place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saudi Arabia is in the midst of a massive socio-economic and infrastructural transformation. The Arabian Peninsula's largest country became a US$1 trillion economy in 2022 for the first time in its history. The Kingdom has achieved a significant economic milestone by surpassing a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of SR4.155 trillion (US$1 trillion) for the first time, ahead of its 2025 target. As it rides a new wave of socio-economic growth, the oil-rich Kingdom has become a head-turner. As it pursues an ambitious aviation and tourism agenda, it has launched two new state-owned airlines which are scheduled to start flying from 2024/2025. One of the three airlines in operation, national carrier SAUDIA is weighing options including a debut bond sale to fund new aircraft orders, as it prepares to almost double its fleet by 2030. The Kingdom plans to boost international arrivals to 70 million. A whopping US $100 billion has been dedicated to airports and the air transport sector to handle 330 million passengers and 4.5 million tons of air cargo by 2030. It is working towards 250-plus destinations connectivity from across its 29 airports. The country is constructing the world's largest airport by size - spread across 776 square kilometres. Construction is on in Jeddah for a skyscraper expected to become the world's tallest building, reaching a height of 1,000 metres, taller than Burj Khalifa in Dubai. If the Kingdom gets the rights to host the Expo 2030, the five-month exhibition will welcome over 120 million visitors to Riyadh and 40 million to the massive site. The mega event will be a "unique opportunity for international visitors to experience its impressive transformation, rich cultural heritage and extraordinary hospitality." The Kingdom has started planning a bid to host the football World Cup in 2034 after abandoning its plans to co-host it in 2030 with Egypt and Greece. The country had already won the right to host the 2029 Winter Games. Its US$7 trillion investment is turbocharging its drive to be a prime destination in the 21st century, with six UNESCO World Heritage Sites adoring its landscape as it rains on average six times a year. Its growth and prosperity in the coming time will for sure make the world astonished. It is right now like a camel on wings.

Book excerpt: Camel meat has many benefits as a meat product. It has low fat content and is highly nutritious, and has potential to be used to combat hyperacidity, hypertension, pneumonia and respiratory disease. This book reviews up-to-date literature on camel meat and meat products, carcass and meat quality characteristics, muscle structure, post-mortem analysis and the nutritive value to humans. A comparatively small component of global meat consumption, camel meat has the potential to undergo an explosion of production worldwide, and currently farming for camel meat in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Australia is undergoing significant expansion. The potential of camel meat in helping to meet projected world food shortages, and being sustainably farmed, is also explored by the editors.

Download or read book Saudi Arabia written by Grace Edwards and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a female Middle East expert, Bradt’s Saudi Arabia is the first English-language travel guide from a mainstream publisher that focuses exclusively on the Kingdom, which has now opened for general tourism as part of rapid political, economic and social reforms. With detailed advice on what to see and do, listings for accommodation and restaurants, guidance on cultural etiquette and advice for women and other diverse travellers, this book provides the practical information adventurous tourists need to explore this new, exciting destination. Saudi Arabia will appeal to adventure travellers, offering activities ranging from pristine, world-class scuba diving to mountain-trekking. With dramatic scenery including a desert that stretches for hundreds of kilometres (where you can camp like a Bedouin) and several accessible nature reserves, visitors looking for undisturbed landscapes are spoilt for choice. Culture vultures will appreciate pre-Islamic rock art, Nabatean heritage, Mada’in Saleh (the sister city to Jordan’s Petra in Jordan) and six UNESCO World Heritage Sites rarely visited by international tourists. Particularly after sundown, when Saudi Arabia truly comes alive, urbanites can explore the cities of Riyadh and Jeddah, where shopping opportunities range from traditional souqs to top-end malls where the wealthy go to see and be seen. Gastronomists can enjoy varied cuisine, from fine dining worthy of a Michelin star to traditional meals served on the floor, shared by all and eaten by hand. This guide dispels misinformation by providing an unbiased, up-to-date and comprehensive resource that accurately reflects what Saudi Arabia now offers visitors from all backgrounds. Most outsiders know little about the Kingdom other than from typically negative media coverage, so may be pleasantly surprised at its rich history and youthful population eager to extend hospitality to guests respecting their culture and traditions. A comprehensive guide combining detailed travel information about the entire Kingdom (from the Northern Borders to Asir, and from Hejaz to Eastern Province) with a chapter explaining some of the main practices of and reasons for the hajj and umrah pilgrimages, plus contextual insights covering cultural etiquette, reforms and women travellers, Bradt’s Saudi Arabia is the perfect companion for people who thrive on off-the-beaten-path travel.

Download or read book Green Sands written by Martha Kirk and published by Texas Tech University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green Sands is Kirk's chronicle of her life in the desert, told with exceptional candor and detail. Local Bedouins, foreign farm workers and their families, Saudi royalty, assorted Westerners, and fellow Americans share their desert world with Kirk. Her sincere curiosity, empathy, and warmth toward these new friends make her story entertaining as well as enlightening. There is a freshness to Kirk's perspective that puts the reader squarely in her shoes as she struggles to assimilate a culture so alien to her own and to embrace an adventure that few have the chance to experience. Martha Kirk shows her pioneering Texas spirit in the pages of Green Sands as she gamely kills camel spiders in the house, bravely risks imprisonment while driving the farm's pickup truck, and lovingly shares meals with Bedouin women and their children.
