Rare softback book "Views Around South Persia". Inside
the book is a sub-title "A Selection of Camera Studies
of native types and views around Southern Persia, including
the Abadan Refinery of the Anglo-Persian Oil Co." See photo
There is no date (but the book must be pre-1935, as
this is the year that the refinery changed it's name to reflect
the the country's new name. The refinery opened in 1909. I can
find no trace of this book on online bookstores. This is a rare
and fascinating selection of old photographs.
