Description

These volumes are a testament to the challenges faced by the extraordinary men who initiated the search for oil in the United Arab Emirates in the years between the two World Wars. This set of a total of five books in six volumes features never-before-published copies of letters, notes and reports complementing the research, which stems from the archives of the Abu Dhabi Petroleum Company (ADPC) and other literature recorded by British Government officials. With rare photographs and maps alongside the author's in-depth narrative, this work will be essential reading for scholars, residents and visitors interested in the history of the United Arab Emirates. The set consists of five books (in 6 volumes): 1. From Pearls to Oil: How the Oil Industry Came to the United Arab Emirates 2. Oil Men, Territorial Ambitions and Political Agents: From Pearls to Oil in the Trucial States of the Gulf (2 vols.) 3. The Trucial Coast Diaries (1948-1957). On the Way from Pearls to Oil in the Trucial States of the Gulf 4. The Trucial Coast Political Reports 1958-1963. The Slow Progress from Pearls to Oil 5. The Trucial Coast Political Reports 1963-1966. From Pearls to Oil - at Last (Book 5 contains an Index for all volumes)
