Doreen Ingrams and her husband were the first Europeans ever to
live in the Hadhramaut, an extraordinary, isolated region of
southern Arabia. Married to an Arabic-speaking British official,
she arrived by boat, and during their ten-year residency travelled
throughout the region by camel and donkey. Doreen kept a diary in
which she detailed their adventures and described her unequalled
access to the domestic quarters, to the women and children, the
food, the scents, secrets, jewels and privileges of this
extraordinarily rich traditional society. "A Time in Arabia" is a
precious document - part history, part time-travel, seen through
the eyes of a decent, modest and compassionate woman.
