Description: This book offers a unique glimpse into the little-known tribal life of Yemen, weaving together the author's personal observations with insights into the customs, culture, and history of this enigmatic region. The author's travels take place during a period of political upheaval, as the Ottoman Empire's influence wanes and new powers emerge, providing a rich backdrop for his exploration of the complexities of Yemeni society. The author's encounters with the enigmatic Cheikh Hassan and his family, as well as his observations of tribal customs and traditions, offer a fascinating window into the heart of this ancient land. He unpacks the dynamics of a society caught between the pull of tradition and the forces of change, and reflects on Yemen's long and tumultuous history. Ultimately, this book is a testament to the enduring spirit of the Yemeni people, their resilience, and their deep connection to their cultural heritage. The author's vivid prose and deep understanding of the region make this book an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history, culture, and people of Yemen.
