Stanford University Press 10/10/2006 Hardback or Cased Book New in New jacket America's Kingdom: Mythmaking on the Saudi Oil Frontier (Hardback or Cased Book)
Stanford Studies in Middle Eastern and Islamic Societies and Cultures. Volume, measuring approximately 6.5" x 9.5", is bound in cream-colored cloth, with stamped gilt lettering to spine.
