The American Teacher
Two months after 9/11, an American teacher arrives in Muscat with little more than a contract and a suitcase.
What follows is a year that changes him forever. And changes everything he thinks he knows about Muslims, the Middle East and the world.
Discovery
Thrown into an Arabian kingdom still half a step from the Middle Ages, he discovers a world most outsiders never see — modern cities and exotic cultures, ancient towns, desert wadis, midnight mountain drives, and the warmth of Omani hospitality.
The author ventures often into the countryside to experience the country and the culture of the Sultanate of Oman.
The American Bedouin
He camps on the Strait of Hormuz just miles from Iran, explores souks and frankincense trails, and finds himself drawn to the beauty and grace of Omani women.
This is the true story of adventure, culture shock, and unexpected connection in a country caught between centuries-old traditions and two cultures descending into wars of religion, money, deception and power.
