Description
When oil was discovered in the Gulf, the lives of the desert tribes changed forever. The old timers still remember how it was, but theirs is an oral tradition, and these accounts will soon be lost to us forever. This book is a last bid to capture that heritage—surprising and charming tales of another world entirely.
