Interesting narrative from a learned source, Sir Percy Cox, adviser to the Sultan of Oman and long term resident of the Persian Gulf. Cox outlines journeys undertaken from Abu Dhabi to Baraimi and along the fringe of Oman on the desert side, to the Jabal Akhdhar or Green Mountains - a distance of about 400 miles; and also his trip from Ras al Khaima to Baraimi and to the coast at Shinas, along it to Sohar. Features descriptions of Oman's capital - Muscat, the Trucial coast, its principalities and the Great Pearl Bank, local fauna, 'the music of the sands,' Ras al Khaima, stronghold of the Jowasmi pirates, and most interestingly perhaps, encounters with local sheikhs. Accompanied by photographic plates and a large fold-out colour map, this narrative also includes comments and notes by veteran Arabia explorers such as H. St. J.B. Philby.

The book is one of the most important books on Persia; dealing with every aspect of Persia, political, archaeological, cultural, etc., its great strength is its topographical section. As Ghani says, "his powers of observation and analysis were extraordinary; no detail ever escaped him. His book can still be used as a topographical guide for travel in Iran." Ghani 87. This makes this report a highly valuable important primary resource. The second report: 21 pages, plus a large fold-out color map, measuring approximately 13 inches x 21 inches (33 cm x 53 cm).
