8vo. 14 pages including a full page sketch map from the travels of Hermann von Wissman, plus photographic plates for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Escorted by an officer of the Mukalla Irregular Army, Ingrams left Mukalla on 25 March 1939 to visit the Hajr Province, driving up the Wadi [valley] Kherba where the 'Akabira tribes reside, through the settlement of Lijmat replete with date groves, to Al Qerba, and into uncharted little inhabited valleys which revealed the presence of early civilizations. In the environs of a place she calls 'Qarif Ba Dhala' she comes across some stone inscriptions resembling those of ancient Egypt, ad sent some to Mukalla for examination. Also sighted was stating "... many heaps of stones set in circles with large upright ones in the midst of them..." possibly old Islamic gravesites. Finally arriving at the fields of Wadi Yuwan, which was dispersed with eight separate villages and grand date palms, the traveller and peace advocate was hospitably received, presenting an opportunity to describe and assess local custom. Further inscriptions were found at Wadi Mardaha, about three and half hours from Al Jinein, again likening Egyptian hieroglyphics. Ingrams notes differences in the valleys of Kanina and Hajr, from other regions of the Hadhramaut Valley, the dwellings for example being crafted of stone held together with a mud and straw plaster, and being five or six stories high with narrow windows, the Subian women being unveiled, and the men appearing rather fit by comparison. Cave dwelling are also seen, being an encampment of Ba Dubian Badawin, or Bedouin. She also learns of lingering contempt between the Al Zagheib and Ba Rasheid [Al Rasheed], and acts of retaliation. The custom of tattooing is less appreciated by the traveller, but none the less recorded as one of the earliest descriptions, following that of Freya Stark in 1936. Ingrams states... "The percentage of good looks is high in Yuwan, where the women have shapely, tapering faces, broad foreheads, wide full lips and straight noses, but they sometimes mar their appearance by tattooing, and the young married women consider it attractive to paint the upper half of their faces yellow and the lower half green." Harold Ingram was the first British Resident Adviser in the Hadhramaut in South Arabia. Mrs. [Doreen] Ingrams travelled on donkey and camel to far distant parts of the country, helping him to bring about the peace among the warring tribes which became known throughout Arabia as 'Ingram's Peace'.

16 pages. Plus a title page and two colour maps in one sheet. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Fascinating narrative of the Lieut. Smith's journey to Mpuemu and the Rovuma as well as his exploration in the Shimba country, accompanied by the itinerary of his travels and two colour route maps, showing his journey from Kilwa to Lindi, and his travel route from Tanga to Kilindini, near Mombasa. The purpose of Smith's travel was to provide information on the slave-trade, to encourage the development of commerce, and to assist the native authorities. After receiving the status of Vice-Consul from John Kirk, Smith was stationed at Kilwa Kivinji on May 1884, from where he made his first journey towards Mpuemu and the Rovuma, in which he interacts with the people of the Muta district who according to him sell their children for food, sighted a caravan of 10 to 15 slaves about 30 miles from Kilwa, and met two slave women who had escaped and traveled with him briefly. In his second journey, Smith explores the Shimba country and provides vivid and very detailed description of the natives.
