Samenvatting
Two years before T E Lawrence's misson to the Hejaz, Captain William Henry Irvine Shakespear, a pioneering British political agent, ventured deep into the Nejdi desert, building crucial ties with Ibn Sa'ud before WW1. His journey and pivitol role in early British-Saudi relations are chronicled in this compelling book.
