1913. While Europe, century after century, treads the path of
progress and development, the abiding characteristic of the
numberless tribes that wander with their tents and flocks over the
vast and arid deserts of Arabia is their immutability. What they
are today, such they were yesterday, and such they will be
tomorrow: they know neither advance nor variation: the Bedawy
preserves, in all its purity, the spirit which animated his
ancestors in the days of Mohammed, and the best commentaries on the
history and the poetry of the Pagan Arabs are the descriptions
given by modern travelers of the manners, customs, and modes of
thought of the Bedawin amongst whom they have sojourned. Contents:
Civil Wars; Christians and Renegades; The Khalifate; The Petty
Tyrants; Chronological Tables.
