Book Description
Yemen is the land of the half mythic Queen of Sheba and the "Arabia Felix" coveted by ancient Rome. Yemen's history is ancient indeed, and much is still in the process of being discovered about this country and its influence on the ancient world. Both the country and the book help open the mind to new understandings of the growth of Middle Eastern civilization and the myriad influence of the past on the present.

As the traveling world awakens to the extraordinary glories and richness of Yemen, this large format, full-color photography book will surely become the visitor's standard compendium about the country.

Prepared by a husband and wife team, Charles and Patricia Aithie, deeply knowledgeable about Yemen's landscapes, cities, history, art, and archaeology, this book provides the factual grounding that no visitor will be able to do without. The work is wonderfully illustrated by the authors' photographs-and, as one of the most photogenic countries in the world, makes for a visual feast.
