Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Original colour illustrated paper covered boards 14 x 22cm. 155pp including double-page map. Covers very good, bumped to the spine ends, interiors fine. This is a reprint, by permission of the Foreign Office, of Cornwallis' "Handbook to Asir", originally prepared for internal use by the Arab Bureau in Cairo, and published on 1 June 1916. The original Preface states: "This Handbook has been compiled almost entirely from native information obtained recently in Cairo, but gathered originally in Asir itself not later than the outbreak of the present war. there being almost no European literature on Asir of any value, and no European having visited the interiors of the country and furnished a report since the French surgeons and others who accompanied the Egyptian forces in the thirties of the last century". It covers geography, people, manufactures, agriculture, livestock, trade, taxes, history and politics, military organisation, tribal notes, personalities, roads and communications, route reports, etc.
