[QUOTE]Originally posted by Everyone's_a_Pascha: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mimmi: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by garfield: [qb] Anyone intersted in early English/Middle Eastern history would love "Desert Queen" by Janet Wallach. It tell about the life of Gertrude Bell an English woman adventurer, adviser to kings and Shieks and an friend of Lawrence of Arabia. She was truly an amazing woman in her time. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yes read "Desert Queen" it was very interesing and educational. Also recommended "A Woman of Egypt" by J.Sadat [/qb][/QUOTE]I find the topic and title's of those two books to be hilarious! I just can't get over how the occupying English felt there were in the right and were "civilizing" the Arabs. Jihan Sadat has to be the most loved so-called Arab women by westerners, but she is one of the most hated by everyday Egyptians. I can't understand why people read books that reinforce some pretty darn Politically Inccorrect mores of a century ago. Those books were written for a certain audience. [/QB][/QUOTE]
