Pearls, Arms And Hashish: Pages From The Life Of A Red Sea Navigator is a memoir written by Henry de Monfreid, a French adventurer and sailor, about his experiences navigating the Red Sea in the early 20th century. The book is a collection of short stories detailing de Monfreid's encounters with local tribes, pearl divers, smugglers and pirates, as well as his own experiences with hashish and arms trafficking. Through his vivid descriptions of the landscapes and people he encounters, de Monfreid provides a unique insight into the culture and politics of the region at the time. The book is a fascinating account of a bygone era of seafaring adventure and exploration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
