This book describes a short journey the author took with Wilfred Thesiger into the marsh lands of Southern Iraq in the late 1950s. Thesiger was a well-known traveler in the region, and had published numerous popular books and articles about his travels in Arabia. Maxwell contacted him, requesting permission to accompany him on a planned expedition to the marsh villages. Thesiger warned that the travel would be uncomfortable and perhaps even boring, but Maxwell was determined to see life in the marshes before the Iraqi government began its program to drain these lands. Thus, Maxwell joined Thesiger, and they traveled together along with 3-4 local oarsmen in a large canoe throughout the marshes for several months.; 8vo 8"-9" tall; 223 pages.
