Large colour-printed folding map of the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman at a scale of 1:1,500,000. The map covers the coastal regions and major cities of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Oman, together with the opposing shores of Iran and the head of the Gulf around Iraq. Particular emphasis is placed on oil infrastructure, with oil fields and pipelines prominently shown, alongside arterial, main and minor roads, railways, airports, settlements, marshes and areas of salt desert. Relief is depicted by colour shading. A major feature of the map is the extensive series of city plans on varying scales, including Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Doha, Al Manamah (Bahrain), Kuwait, Ad Dammam, Riyadh, and Muscat & Matrah, offering a valuable snapshot of Gulf urban development during the oil-boom period of the 1970s. Folding between the publisher’s original glossy blue card covers. Printed and published in Great Britain, 1977.
