The first contemporary analysis of Bedouin and biblical cultures sheds new light on biblical laws, practices, and Bedouin history Written by one of the world's leading scholars of Bedouin culture, this groundbreaking book sheds new light on ...
This book sets out to examine these issues and how they affect, and are affected by, Bedouin communities living in the arid areas of the Nubian Desert in southeastern Egypt.
This book fills a major gap by extending such study into the world of the nomadic pastoralist and exploring the extent to which these patterns are valid for another major subsistence type.
Published originally in 1935, this is an account of twenty two years spent, off and on, among the Bedouins of Arabia, migrating, hunting, raiding, starving, feasting and making wonderful desert friendships.
This book presents 113 poems, which reflect attitudes of the Bedouin, a desert-dwelling tribe, to a variety of personal, social and political experiences.
