Philby's pioneering work on the pre-Islamic history of Arabia starting with the Abrahamic era, thence the Sabaean Mukarribs, Minaean culture and dynasties, the Kingdom of Saba, etc. An appendix lists the kings of the various kingdoms and the dates when they ruled. Philby published the work at his own expense in Alexandria after his London publisher turned down the manuscript as they disagreed with Philby's thesis that Southern Arabia was the original homeland of the Semites. (See E. Monroe, Philby of Arabia (London 1973) pp. 233 & 307). First edition; 8vo; edition limited to 500 copies signed by Philby, original blue printed boards, a fine copy; 152 pp. Provenance: Professor Walter Muller (bookplate).
