Already an experienced traveller in Arabia  with a genuine interest in its people  and a talent for  friendliness,  Miss Stark made light of bureaucratic red tape,  and treated the people she met,  both European and Arab , with friendliness  and kindness: an  approach which  facilitated her extensive travels.  Her descriptions  of  the impressive , varied  landscape, and  colourful tribal inhabitants  , paints   a revealing picture of the  Saudi Arabia of the late 1930s/ early 1940's ,   and ends with  a description  of the author's  return journey over virtually unknown country in the company of a  Sultan's caravan.
