Ebook: Tribe and State in Bahrain: The Transformation of Social and Political Authority in an Arab State

An all-times classic written by an authority, Fuad Khuri, it is so far one of the best books on Bahrain, considering all the social, religious and ethnic divisions inside the island nation. The book was written in the 1970's but it is still important since it was written after the constitution of 1975 and remains a classic among those studying Bahraini history even though it's not very well-known outside those circles.
