It is a closed country, still medieval in many ways, ruled by an absolute monarch, dominated by a fanatic fundamentalist sect, reactionary and xenophobic. And yet, because of its oil resources and strategic position, it has been pitched into the twentieth century. The fascinating tale of its transformation from a Bedouin realm in the desert to a very strange world power has never before been told from the inside. Sandra Mackey is uniquely qualified to tell it. Pretending to be no more than the wife of a doctor in a Riyadh hospital, she led a clandestine life as a reporter and observer. For four years she smuggled out a series of brilliant articles, published under male pseudonyms in the Christian Science Monitor, that got to the heart of Saudi society and government. As a humble typist, she worked for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and then for the Saudi Ministry of Planning. She traveled by Jeep to remote areas, attended a royal wedding, talked to women in harems, walked into PLO headquarters for an interview, and even risked the wrath of the matawain, the religious police, by trying to enter the forbidden city of Mecca. This is reporting at its best~both for colorful personal experience in the surreal world of the Saudi mentality and for substantive information on the recent and current history of the kingdom. As well as describing the Saudi Arabia of the present, Mackey analyzes the forces that will shape the future~the oil market, the influence of the huge foreign work force on the society, and the durability of the House of Saud in the face of change.…
