Scott gives a fascinating account of an expedition that took place in 1937 to the Yemen when that country was closed to Europeans by Order of the Imam. Ostensibly a scientific expedition, it posesses great political, cultural, and anthropological interest. The tense negotiations which preceeded the expedition and its ultimate success assured that this work remains perhaps the most important account ever written of that forbidding land that occupies the southern half of the Arabian shore.
