More about the book
The narrative explores the transformation of Bandar-e Lengeh from a tranquil fishing village into a bustling trade center and pearl fishing hub, shaped by its tumultuous history of piracy and British intervention. Initially thriving under the Qavasem Arabs, the port faced decline after a new Iranian customs regime in 1903 shifted trade to Dubai. This volume draws on diverse primary sources, including Iranian, Dutch, and British reports, making it a vital resource for scholars and history enthusiasts interested in the Gulf's rich cultural and economic evolution.
