I-Introduction by Christopher Sykes
For generations the British-both men and women-have felt the attraction of Arabia, whether as explorers, soldiers, administrators, tourists, or fugitives from a more elaborate civilisation. What is the nature of this attraction?
The series of talks that
Christopher Sykes introduces tonight will examine the question from various points of view-some speakers making deductions from their own experience, others examining the careers of exceptional personalities who have felt the Arabian spell.
