ABSTRACT
AND now began the last lap and in some ways the best of all; with the thrill of travelling over unexplored country each view seemed to open itselfout for you alone. Arabia is a dry country but here was a river flowing mile after mile and day after day with clear green water, banked with grass and trees. This was the part of the wadi of which I had read so long ago in Hogarth's book and I felt in an entirely unjustifiable way that it had been waiting all these years for me.
