Review: Five Stars - An excelente review of Oman's history, carefully describing the periods of its development. Really top.
Review: Technically adequate, but not absorbing for a casual reader - I don't doubt this is a decent history of Oman, but it is not an interesting page turner for the casual reader. And a lot of the fault lies in the subject matter rather than the author. I very much enjoyed the chapters on the early and medieval history, but by the time were get into trade treaties with the British Empire, the history becomes entirely dry. Also there are few historical controversies in Oman I've read about before, particularly about British involvement in the coup d'état of 1970 - potentially one of the highlights of Omani history for English language readers - which I felt were dealt with quite superficially.
