Saudi and Yemen

Book title: Saud and Yemen Author: Lotfi Nauman Publisher: Jadawil Book classification: Novel Number of pages: 304 About the book: This book is an honest and objective documentation of important stages in the history of Saudi-Yemeni relations during the reign of King Saud bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. It offers a special and new Yemeni perspective on this period, based on valuable testimonies and sources that enriched the book and filled its pages, documenting King Saud's activities and his engagement with Yemeni affairs from the early thirties until just before his death in the late sixties. It highlights the special attention given to Yemen as the neighboring brotherly country and an important part of the Arabian Peninsula, along with encouragement of efforts to revive it, acceptance of its positive developments, and awareness of negative risks, based on visible realities of that historical phase. Yemen deserved attention and care during that period and others, and thus those phases deserved documentation and study through this book, which the author, Yemeni journalist and political researcher Lotfi Fouad Naaman, who is interested in the history of contemporary Yemen and foreign relations, leaves to the discerning reader to discover the similarities between past and present, with attention to details that are not lacking in accurate documentation, refined analysis, and elegant style.
