Vol. 2" by Lady Anne Blunt is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work documents the author's travels through Arabia, focusing significantly on the region of Nejd, its horses, and the social and cultural intricacies of the Arab tribes. The book combines personal observations with detailed descriptions of local customs, particularly those related to horse breeding and the traditional lifestyles of Bedouin tribes. The opening of this volume begins with a discussion on the valiant Nejd horses, their scarcity, and the notable stables of Ibn Rashid in Haïl. Lady Blunt provides insight into the political dynamics affecting horse ownership and breeding, detailing how power struggles have shifted the status of various horse lineages. The narrative is rich with observations of individual mares, the significance of lineage among the Bedouins, and the complex relationships molded by horse culture in the region, as Lady Blunt navigates both the hospitable and treacherous aspects of her encounters along the way.
