The Road to Ubar

The Road to Ubar by Nicholas Clapp The ‘lost’ city of Ubar is located in Oman in the Desert of the Empty Quarter, one of the largest deserts in the world. The author spent many years researching this fabled city buried under sand. Satellite imagery helped with the discovery.

A fascinating read. Dave has personally visited the site of this city.
