56801Washington D.C.: Department of the Interior United States Geological Survey and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Ministry of Finance 1963. SECOND EDITION ENGLISH ISSUE. Large chromolithohraphed map 122 x 139 cm of the Arabian peninsula shown with topographic relief and marked with water pipelines oases oil fields oil pipelines ports and harbours oil wells natural gas fields quarries and mines. Key lower left. The map includes the territories of modern day Kuwait Qatar Bahrain United Arab Emirates Oman and Yemen and was the work of a team lead by the distinguished geologist Glen F. Brown whose pioneering work on surface geology with its emphasis on water resources minerals and oil pertains to this day. Minor light spotting lower right generally in excellent condition. Issued simultaneously in an English and Arabic versions. Originally conceived in 1953 this second edition shows significant additional topographical detail and noticeably showing the growth in oil fields and accompanying infrastructure. Brown 1911-2001 began his career conducting coal investigations in South China and the Philippines and ground water investigations in Mississippi and Colorado the latter mostly concerned with supplying water to military installations. In response to a request from Ibn Sa'ud for assistance from the United States Geological Survey USGS Brown was selected in 1944 to investigate water supplies in the Saudi Arabian desert. Brown "arrived in Saudi Arabia early in 1945 and joined a mission sponsored by the US Foreign Economic Administration to study possibilities for agricultural development in central Arabia. As part of the mission he carried out a detailed investigation of the geologic formations in the Al Kharj district and identified substantial ground-water resources in buried aquifers. His report on the results of that investigation was very enthusiastically received by Saudi officials. Brown returned to Saudi Arabia at the request of Ibn Saud to conduct reconnaissance geologic mapping mineral evaluation and water-resource studies in the western and central parts of the kingdom. The mapping was carried forward from 1950 to 1958 by Brown with USGS and Saudi associates and extended to the entire Arabian Peninsula in cooperation with the Arabian American Oil Company Aramco as well as to organizations and companies of other countries in the peninsula. This resulted in a remarkable series of bilingual geologic and geographic maps of Saudi Arabia at a scale of 1:500000 and a geologic and geographic map of the entire Arabian Peninsula at a scale of 1:2000000 all of which were published by the USGS. These maps together with reports on the geology mineral deposits and water resources prepared by Brown and his associates providing the basis for Saudi Arabia to undertake a major national resource exploration and development program" obituary Geological Society of America. The map includes the territories of modern day Kuwait Qatar Bahrain United Arab Emirates Oman and Yemen. Although the hunt for oil gas and minerals ultimately drove geological survey work across the region in its early years it was the need for continual water sources which was the catalyst for Saudi Arabia's resource exploration. In 1944 King 'Abd al-'Aziz approached the United States for a technical expert who could assist with the identification and plotting of the kingdom's natural resources particularly its groundwater reserves. Glen F. Brown who undertook the task and is responsible for this map was one of the pioneers of a partnership between the United States Geological Survey USGS and the government of Saudi Arabia. This collaboration was one of international importance spanning the next five decades and influencing the development of the kingdom significantly. By 1954 the Saudi Ministry of Finance United States Geological Survey USGS and Aramco were working together to produce the first full series of geographic and geologic maps of the country. The first of their type in the Peninsula were published between the late 1950s and early 1960s in both Arabic and English copies. The information these maps contained formed the basis of subsequent Saudi national development plans. To this day all modern maps of the kingdom trace their roots back to these publications.

19481215The Burmah Oil Co. Burma Trading Ltd Rangoon 1948. Fourth Edition. Softcover Perfect Bound. Very Good Condition. Book A very good copy of the first post-war edition of the guidebook including the map which has seen very little if any use. The "Fourth Edition" reflects the fact that this is the fourth guidebook that was issued. The Third Edition was published around the start of World War II in 1939. As the Foreword notes "For four years little or no maintenance was carried out roads previously good fell into disrepair bridges were bombed and destroyed and opposing armies constructed new highways" p. 1. The folded map printed in black and red opens up to 13" wide by 20" high. Roads are marked in red and designated "all weather" "fair weather" and "unclassified." Places with petrol pumps are underlined in red. The map is in excellent condition with three creases in the margins and only one 1/4" tear at the outside edge of one of the folds. WorldCat shows two entries for the book OCLC #250091811 and #19666339 with a total of only 16 libraries including the Department of State's Ralph J. Bunche Library the U.S. Transportation Department Library the Library of Congress and the British Library. Size: Around 7" or slightly taller - Duodecimo 12mo. 121 pages. Item Type: Book. The text block is tight and unmarked. None of the many Notes pages have any entries. The thin cheap paper has browned from age but is in good condition. The last three leaves have a 2" diagonal crease at the bottom corner not reaching the text. Green paper wrapper that has browned around the edges from age. About 1/8" of the upper right corner of the front cover is missing. The first and last pages are glued to the front cover so the first page is tight and the rear cover is creased where the page is no longer glued in probably because of the weight of the map that is in a pocket on the inside rear cover. No foxing in this copy. Page edges browned slightly. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Antiquarian & Rare; Automobile travel -- Burma -- Guidebooks; Myanmar; 1940s; Travel & Places.
