About this listen

 THE REMARKABLE ADVENTURE BEHIND THE TV SERIES ARABIA WITH LEVISON WOOD

Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Award

'[A] rollicking Boys' Own adventure' - Spectator

'This heart-stopping personal account of historic Arabia today.' - Compass Magazine

Following in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia and Wilfred Thesiger, Arabia is an insight into Levison Wood's most complex and daring expedition yet: an epic and unprecedented 5000-mile journey through 13 countries, circumnavigating the Arabian Peninsula.

Honest, reflective and poignant, Arabia is a historical, religious and spiritual journey, through some of the harshest and most beautiful environments on Earth. Exploring the Middle East through the lives, hearts and hopes of its people, Levison Wood challenges the 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.

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.

A Must

I've read all of Lev's books, and they're fantastic. This is genuinely one of my favourites. It's daring on a number of levels, however particularly in the way it challenges misconceptions. Lev achieves this through his entertaining honesty. Inspiring book and it's narrated as good as anything I've listened to previously.
