This emotional and sweeping memoir begins with a 16-year-old Arabian boy in 1915. It tells the story of one man’s path from farmhand, to merchant, to an influential figure in society, and the economy of the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia.Semm An Arabian Son’s Journey, is part Middle Eastern memoir and part detailed account of the rise of Saudi Arabia as a leader in the world’s oil industry. It’s both a cultural and regional biography, and a history lesson on the economy of oil. Set against the backdrop of the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the rise of Arab nationalism, tribal clashes and revenge killings, it details that tumultuous and dangerous time during the resurrection of Third Saudi dynasty since 1744 AD.Separated from family and home, Semm Yubah begins with a merciless trek by camel caravan across the Arabian desert for the sake of the family's survival—a journey that would forever change the course of his life and alter the destiny of his family.
