Originally published by Cambridge University Press in 1885, this work was the first of its kind to demystify the essence of Arabic Tribal groups by examining the structure and obligations formed with the patriarchal tribes and explaining how the subdivision of an original stock was based on a system of kinship through male descendants. Covered are theories which are derived of traceable kinship versus a less absolute genealogical basis for tribal kinship. Overall, it is a fascinating volume immensely resolute in its analysis of the tribal bonds based on the identification of genealogical roots and understandably the best solid reference available for Western studies of Arabic people - whether solid or nomadic.
