A Jewel in the Mid East
Reading this book a year ago I could not wonder why we don't have more friends like
Queen Noor and her late husband in the Mid East. It is a wonderful love story that
brings together American and Jordanian cultures. Her description of the boundries
with armed guards on both sides and people on the beach shows the difficulty of
living with ancient animosities. A modern look at Jordan and the Arabian people
is in this book and her compassion for those in her country who needed an income
by weaving Jordanian rugs shows that she isin tune with all the peoples of her accepted
country. We need a book like this.
