After years of embedding himself with Arab tribes and living according to their customs, Thesiger revered their ancient code of conduct that made survival in the desert possible: honesty, loyalty, courage, endurance and patience. Through his extensive travels in the Middle East, he developed lifelong friendships and yet also some controversial opinions. He criticized the rapid industrialisation of the region, insisting that "the discovery of oil in Arabia was the biggest disaster that could happen". He also strongly opposed the invasion of Iraq shortly before his death, which he warned would only cause "bitter, bitter hatred". This report is illustrated with Sir Wilfreds photographs, and archival footage of him and his family.

A reconstruction of Wilfred Thesiger's journeys in the desert.
Wilfred Thesiger, author of Arabian Sands, is the last of England's great desert explorers. For five years he shared the life of the Bedouin in Southern Arabia, living and travelling the most desolate and arid desert in the world. The film is a reconstruction of his journeys, and seeks to show Thesiger's love for the desert and the hardship and austerity of the way of life.
Made in 1967 this film reflects the cultural attitudes and language of the time it was made. Picture and sound quality of their time.

SIR WILFRED THESIGER, last of the great gentleman adventurers, was, in the words of David Attenborough, 'one of the very few people who in our time could be put on the pedestal of the great explorers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.'
Born at the British Legation in 1910 in Addis Ababa, Thesiger spent his early years in Abyssinia. He was educated at Eton and Oxford and in 1930, aged twenty, attended the coronation of Haile Selassie at the Emperor's personal invitation. Throughout his life he journeyed through some of the remotest, most dangerous areas of Africa, the Middle East and Asia, witnessing and photographing fast-changing cultures to great acclaim. His many inspiring travels involved explorations in Ethiopia, wartime service with the SOE and the SAS, crossings of the Empty Quarter of Arabia, sojourns in the Iraqi marshes and many loyal and sometimes turbulent friendships. During the 1960s he travelled extensively in East Africa, and from 1978 he spent the greater part of each year living among the pastoral Samburu in Kenya, until retiring to England in 1994. He was knighted in 1995 and died in 2003, aged ninety-three. His books, including Arabian Sands (1959) and The Marsh Arabs (1964), have been hailed as classics of modern travel writing.
Published to coincide with the centenary of Wilfred Thesiger's birth and a major exhibition at the Pitt Rivers Museum, this book is a moving celebration of Thesiger's enduring relationship with the African continent, and his fascination with its peoples and landscapes. Containing around two hundred photographs from Thesiger's personal archive, many of them previously unpublished, these essays explore and evaluate his lifetime of exploration and travel in Africa, as well as, for the first time, his photographic practice and its legacy as a museum collection.

A British explorer who famously lived with the Bedouins for five years, Sir Wilfred Thesiger photographed and told the story of Abu Dhabi and its people during the pre-oil era of the mid 20th century.
In spite of cultural differences and difficult living conditions, Thesiger lived the life of a true Bedouin to experience the culture first hand, and was embraced as an equal. Known by the locals as Mubarak bin Landan, his writings give a unique account of the life of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the sheikhs and tribes of Abu Dhabi, and the history of a time that would have otherwise been lost.
Over the years he photographed an incredible 35,000 images of Abu Dhabi and the surrounding areas, including those of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Thesiger crossed the Empty Quarter twice in his life, in 1946 and 1948. Thesiger's celebrated works include: Crossing the Sands (Dedicated to the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan), The Life of the Great Explorer, My Life and Travels, Arabian Sands, and The Last Nomad.

'Arabian Sands' tells the story of Sir Wilfred Thesiger, whose passion was travelling through some of the most isolated places on earth. The movie is set in the Southern Arabian deserts of the late 1940's. Along with his companions Bin Kabina and Bin Ghabaisha, besides others, Wilfred Thesiger set out exploring the world of the desert Arabs known as Bedus. This film portrays the journey of a great European explorer with the nomadic camel-breeding Bedu in a harsh land where no thought of a world other than their own existed. No man can live this life and remain unchanged. He will carry, however faint, the imprint of the desert, and will have within him the yearning to return. For this cruel land can cast a spell which no temperate clime can match. A fascinating story of adventure, courage, endurance, generosity and conviction of an illiterate tribe, 'Arabian Sands' is a movie experience that will change your life.

SIR WILFRED THESIGER, last of the great gentleman adventurers, was, in the words of David Attenborough, 'one of the very few people who in our time could be put on the pedestal of the great explorers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.'
Born at the British Legation in 1910 in Addis Ababa, Thesiger spent his early years in Abyssinia. He was educated at Eton and Oxford and in 1930, aged twenty, attended the coronation of Haile Selassie at the Emperor's personal invitation. Throughout his life he journeyed through some of the remotest, most dangerous areas of Africa, the Middle East and Asia, witnessing and photographing fast-changing cultures to great acclaim. His many inspiring travels involved explorations in Ethiopia, wartime service with the SOE and the SAS, crossings of the Empty Quarter of Arabia, sojourns in the Iraqi marshes and many loyal and sometimes turbulent friendships. During the 1960s he travelled extensively in East Africa, and from 1978 he spent the greater part of each year living among the pastoral Samburu in Kenya, until retiring to England in 1994. He was knighted in 1995 and died in 2003, aged ninety-three. His books, including Arabian Sands (1959) and The Marsh Arabs (1964), have been hailed as classics of modern travel writing.
Published to coincide with the centenary of Wilfred Thesiger's birth and a major exhibition at the Pitt Rivers Museum, this book is a moving celebration of Thesiger's enduring relationship with the African continent, and his fascination with its peoples and landscapes. Containing around two hundred photographs from Thesiger's personal archive, many of them previously unpublished, these essays explore and evaluate his lifetime of exploration and travel in Africa, as well as, for the first time, his photographic practice and its legacy as a museum collection.

A British explorer who famously lived with the Bedouins for five years, Sir Wilfred Thesiger photographed and told the story of Abu Dhabi and its people during the pre-oil era of the mid 20th century.
In spite of cultural differences and difficult living conditions, Thesiger lived the life of a true Bedouin to experience the culture first hand, and was embraced as an equal. Known by the locals as Mubarak bin Landan, his writings give a unique account of the life of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the sheikhs and tribes of Abu Dhabi, and the history of a time that would have otherwise been lost.
Over the years he photographed an incredible 35,000 images of Abu Dhabi and the surrounding areas, including those of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Thesiger crossed the Empty Quarter twice in his life, in 1946 and 1948. Thesiger's celebrated works include: Crossing the Sands (Dedicated to the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan), The Life of the Great Explorer, My Life and Travels, Arabian Sands, and The Last Nomad.

'Arabian Sands' tells the story of Sir Wilfred Thesiger, whose passion was travelling through some of the most isolated places on earth. The movie is set in the Southern Arabian deserts of the late 1940's. Along with his companions Bin Kabina and Bin Ghabaisha, besides others, Wilfred Thesiger set out exploring the world of the desert Arabs known as Bedus. This film portrays the journey of a great European explorer with the nomadic camel-breeding Bedu in a harsh land where no thought of a world other than their own existed. No man can live this life and remain unchanged. He will carry, however faint, the imprint of the desert, and will have within him the yearning to return. For this cruel land can cast a spell which no temperate clime can match. A fascinating story of adventure, courage, endurance, generosity and conviction of an illiterate tribe, 'Arabian Sands' is a movie experience that will change your life.

ABOUT FRANK GARDNER:
Inspired to travel to remote places from an early age after a chance meeting with the veteran Arabian explorer Sir Wilfred Thesiger, Gardner developed a fascination for the Arab world and was determined to read Arabic at university.
After living with an Egyptian family in the backstreets of Cairo, he graduated from Exeter University with a degree in Arabic & Islamic Studies. He then became an investment banker before taking the plunge into journalism, working initially for BBC World TV. Spotting a gap in coverage he moved himself and his heavily pregnant wife to Dubai in 1997 to set up as a freelance Gulf stringer covering all 6 GCC countries and Yemen.
In 1999 Gardner was appointed BBC Middle East correspondent in charge of the bureau in Cairo, but travelled throughout the region. After the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York, Gardner focused on stories related to the so-called 'War on Terror', a phrase he always disliked, working to steer his audiences away from many of the prejudices and stereotypings that sprang up in the wake of those attacks.
On 6 June 2004, while reporting from a suburb of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Gardner was shot six times and seriously injured in an attack by al-Qaeda sympathisers. His colleague Irish cameraman Simon Cumbers was shot dead. He was left partly paralysed in the legs and dependent on a wheelchair for life.
After 14 operations, 7 months in hospital and months of rehabilitation he returned to reporting for the BBC in mid-2005, using a wheelchair or a frame.
He recently revisited Saudi Arabia to film a new documentary, recently screened by the BBC. He will be signing copies of his books after the talk.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY:
The Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. It has been established for 189 years, aiming to promote debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
