"The House of Saud is a thorough account of how Ibn Saud and his family became the dominant rulers in the tribal landscape of Saudi Arabia and built the Arab Kingdom. This book looks at the rise of oil and the importance of the Kingdom to the world. In addition, it looks at Saudi Arabia’s influence in both OPEC and the Arab world vis a vis the Israel Palestine conflict. Familiar faces like Saddam Hussien, The Shah and Asad pop up throughout the telling of this narrative. Very well written and thoughtful analysis taking you inside the debates of the royal family, especially between Feisal and Saud.
David Holden was murdered in Egypt in December, 1977, while this book was still a work in progress, and it was later finished by Richard Johns."
