The Voyage of The Mir-El-Lah af Lorenzo Ricciardi (bog)

The story of the journey of the dhow, the Mir-El-Lah, with her quixotic nakhoda (captain) is told in this remarkable book. With his wife, Mirella, and their crew, this intrepid traveller sailed from the Shatt Al Arab on the Iran/Iraq border to East Africa on the classic monsoon route which Arab sailors have travelled for thousands of years.
