Translated by James Hutton

The Horses of the Sahara and the Manners of the Desert, written by E. Daumas and first published in 1851, is a comprehensive study of Arabian horses and their significance in Arab culture, particularly in the Sahara. The book combines Daumas's firsthand observations of horse breeding, anatomy, and training with cultural insights into Bedouin traditions and lifestyles. Notably, it includes extended commentaries by Emir Abd-el-Kader, enhancing its value for equestrians and historians alike. Daumas's unique perspective as a European in North Africa offers an objective view of Arab customs, making this work a significant contribution to the understanding of European-North African relations in the 19th century.
