“Water carts used at Aden to bring water from the wells to the city.”

In a previous post I published a chapter from the 1911 book Zigzag Journeys in the Camel Country by Samuel and Amy Zwemer. The book has several photographs of Aden and the surrounding area, which are well worth a look a century later.

“The Big Camel market in the crater at Aden where we preached our first sermon in 1891.”

“A caravan from Yemen bringing in hides for American kid shoes.”

“When the Arabs return from pilgrimage, they load their baggage on the poor, patient camel.”
