The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

This single, large format volume, covers the history, culture, religion, economy and government of the country, providing detailed information on social development, the cities and industrial output. Illustrated with a wealth of previously unpublished photographs and an array of useful maps, this book, with its balanced coverage and specialist research, is an absolute must. The original edition of this work, published some twenty years ago, has long been acknowledged as the illustrated reference on the country, updated at regular intervals. This long awaited new edition starts from a clean slate, with a new larger format, completely new illustrative material throughout, and a text substantially rewritten.
