| 520 | 1 | |a "This is a study of the seafaring communities of the Arabian Gulf and Oman over the last hundred and fifty years. It focuses on the cultural, material and commercial significance of the dhow and its role in the life and interaction of coastal communities with a long tradition of seafaring. Drawn from archival material, extensive field research and interviews that capture the voices and memories of the seamen, the work presents and integrated and dynamic study of dhow activity in the area, bringing together history, geography and material culture. The sea, the ships and the people who sailed them are examined within the context of the wider culture of the Indian Ocean, as expressed in boat-building traditions, navigational techniques, crew organization and port towns."--BOOK JACKET. | |
