Title: infromative overview of Arab bedouin culture; adventure
Product review: The Scorpion was an adventure story about an orphaned American boy raised by a bedouin tribe called the Mutir (shepherds) in mid 20th century Saudi Arabia. Kaplan wove the ancient bedouin culture into a backdrop of political turmoil and change facing the Arab world of today. Kaplan painted a vivid picture of a desert world alive with passion, chicanery and danger trying maintain ties with the past while colliding with the present and culminating with a great camal race to boggle the mind.
