Tunis-Kairous-An and Carthage (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781850770671)

Tunis, Kairouan and Carthage - the very names conjure up visions of 'a hundred dramatic scenes and incidents which have governed the subsequent history of the world'. In this volume (written at the beginning of the twentieth century) Graham Petrie gives a thorough and detailed account of the history and contemporary life of these Tunisian habitations. But this is no mere travel guide: the author's first-hand acquaintance with the places and people he describes is evident in the absorbing narrative and delicate watercolours which are reproduced in full colour.
