Nabhan is always a good read,
By
This review is from: Arab/American: Landscape, Culture, and Cuisine in Two Great Deserts (Paperback)
Nabhan shows the connections between deserts, desert peoples, cookery, languages, and plants. His own multinational clan ranges is at home in several Middle Eastern countries and North America. I was also interested in the instances of language transfer. One example: al-jubb (Arabic) - aljibe (Andalusian and Sonoran Spanish) - alquives (O'odham [Pagago]) meaning a shaded cistern. Of interest to desert lovers and to those interested in immigration stories.
