    About this ebook

    Living in a Saudi Arabian oil "camp" was the stuff of a growing child's fantasies …

    In the fifties, American oilmen labored feverishly to quickly develop Saudi Arabia's nascent oil industry. Many brought families to the desert outpost of Aramco, a transformative move that flipped their children's all-American life into one embedded in the sand dunes and culture of Arabia. Author Rick Snedeker was one of these children, arriving in 1953 with his parents and two siblings. In 3,001 Arabian Days, he details the unique growing-up experiences he and other Aramco expatriates shared in the dusty but comfortable, far-away but safe company town they affectionately called "home."
