Very detailed view of Saudi Arabia
This was a well written book about the history, the culture and the royalty of Saudia Arabia. The book reads like it was written by a Saudi citizen. The author captures all kinds of details and historical nuances. Kept my attention and interest very well. The only thing that bothered me a little was the lack of critique against radical Islam. He talks about it but never makes a value judgement. A summation at the end of how western civilization compares favorably to the islamic culture would have helped. I felt like he was either co-opted by the culture a bit or was trying to hard not to be negative (although there is ample material for it).
