About this listen
The award-winning TV adventurer and travel writer's enthralling account of his 5,000-mile expedition around the Arabian Peninsula, from Iraq to Lebanon.
Following in the footsteps of great explorers such as Lawrence of Arabia and Wilfred Thesiger, Arabia is Levison Wood's account of his most complex expedition yet: circumnavigating the Arabian Peninsula. Travelling through some of the harshest and most beautiful environments on earth, he seeks to challenge our perceptions of an often misunderstood part of the world, seeing how the region has changed and examining the stories we don't often hear about in the media.

This was a great listen and very interesting especially in todays current political climate. I had to keep stopping to look up maps to see where he was and where he was going.

profound travel writing of the 21st century
A remarkable achievement in travel and the only true insight into the everyday life of people living in the middle East. The journey the author takes is astoundingly dangerous and challenging and the characters he engages with along the way are honest and revealing.

Fascinating Travelogue
This is my third book by the author and I wasn’t disappointed. It felt as if I was with Lev on his journey, and that I too was travelling through the Arabian desert. A fascinating insight into the people and places of this region.

Great read
I read this in the interest of learning more about Arabia. I didn’t have much knowledge on the topic prior to reading this and it was a wonderful read. The stories were told beautifully and it was very easy to put yourself there. Will definitely look out for more books by the author

A Must
The book was eye opening in more ways then I could have imagined, a definition of travel and adventure - and one cant help but be humble by the stories and in turn less judgemental & more so understanding.
