Hamilton travelled to Shabwa, the "Hidden City of Arabia", as a Political Officer on duty; beginning his journey from Beihan in the winter of 1938, following the course of the Wadi Balharith, the continuation of Wadi Beihan, in the company with about two hundred and fifty of the Bal Harithand Karab tribe. He brought with him a copy of Philby's lecture and maps and his notes of his own journey dating from 1931. In this fascinating report he makes many remarks on Philby's report and findings, and gives a vivid description of the geographical features, the tribes, ruins as well as his excavation. Hamilton believed that the wall city of Shabwa was a cemetery, collection of mausolea and graves, and suggesting that the ruin area, which includes Jardan, Markjha and Beihan, was the southern collecting point for caravans from the south coast. 19 pages, including sketch map and black and white plates.

This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Dr. Alfons Gabriel (1894 – 1976) was a Viennese doctor of medicine as well as an acclaimed geographer and travel writer who, accompanied by his wife Agnes, explored the deserts of Iran, in three expeditions in the years 1927 to 1928, 1933 and 1937. He also spent a great deal of time in the Dutch East Indies. Among his highly acclaimed books include "Durch Persiens Wüsten" [Through Deserts of Persia], published in 1935, which was translated to Persian. Dr. Gabriel's first expedition in the years 1927-28 was commenced from the Persian Gulf, travelling into the mountainous country of Bashagird in southern Iran, where he entered Anguran, and via the Jaz Murian swamp penetrated into the Lut, crossed the desert by new paths, and investigated the great northern Iranian salt-swamps. Four years later in 1933 he undertook his second journey, spending several months in the salt-swamps of northern Iran, exploring the sand desert of the Rig-i-Jinn, the Desert of Ghosts, then crossed the middle part of the Lut, and continued to the south into the Sarhad of Iranian Baluchistan. Accompanied by a colour route map and many spectacular photographic images, this important first-hand report delineates Dr. Gabriel's third and last journey in 1937, during which he explored the unknown territory of southern Lut, the great desert of Iran and Iranian Baluchistan, which resulted in filling several blanks on map. He provides vivid description of his journey and includes fascinating remarks on sandstorms, the inhabitants of Hudiyan, date plantations, remains of old stone buildings belonging to Kafar race, remains of old settlements at Surk, fortress of Hajji Agha Khan at Khash, and much more.

Robert Friedrich Moritz Anhegger; born in Vienna 1911, died in Amsterdam 2001; German Turkologist; educated in Switzerland; member of the Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands (KPD); traveled widely in Turkey together with the Austrian Turkologist and fellow party member Andreas Tietze; settled in Turkey in 1939; after the World War II director of the German cultural institute, later Goethe Institute, in Istanbul and lastly of the Goethe Institute in Amsterdam.
8vo. 29 pages. Text is in German. This is a complete monthly issue, containing the above mentioned account. Attractively bound booklet style in recent blue paper covers with label. This issue contains a fascinating compendium on Persia, written during the Russo-Persian War and the brief Franco-Persian alliance. The author draws from and quotes passages of Guillaume-Antoine Olivier's now extremely scarce title, the final volume of which had finally been published the same year in 1807, "Le Voyage dans l'Empire Othoman, l'Égypte et la Perse" [A Journey in the Ottoman Empire, Egypt and Persia]. An early nineteenth century account covering geography, natural history, commodities such as gold and silver, and social customs from various different ethnic groups. In this text Persians are ascribed attributes such as civilized, rich, polite, and hospitable, at the same time struggling with long-standing inter-racial conflicts between Arabs, Uzbeks, Kurds, Afghans, and Turkmen (Turkoman), the latter of which are described as warlike. Further topics of interest include practices of astrology, medicine, opium usages, and nomadic gypsies. A scarce dissertation and unique item to pair with the collector's volume. Guillaume-Antoine Olivier (1756-1814) was one of the great French naturalists and entomologists, who in 1796, together with physician and zoologist Jean-Guillaume Bruguières, travelled to Persia for six years on a major expedition, and returned to France in 1798 with substantial natural history specimens from Turkey, Asia Minor, Persia (Iran), Egypt, and some Mediterranean islands. His large collection is now mostly at the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris. These are the original pages printed in 1807, and NOT a reprint. This narrative is from a rare multi-volume geographical and scientific journal titled "Allgemeine Geographische Ephemeriden", which issued fifty volumes from 1798-1816 and which encompassed critical contemporary topics of geography and astronomy. Adam Christian Gaspari and Franz Xaver von Zach were editors of this important scientific journal.
