by Wilfred Thesiger.
In this "classic of travel writing" the author recalls the time that he spent living in the Southern Marshes of Iraq during the 1950s. Atmospheric and evocative, the book records a water-dominated way of life that had remained unchanged for 5,000 years, but which is now almost destroyed. Read by David Holt. Producer Anne Edyvean

In charge of the battleground is chef de cuisine Daniel Crow. The cockpit of fire is not unknown to playwrights Arnold Wesker and Bernard Kops, and as Kops says: "If you can survive the kitchen, you can survive anything."
