Four of Wilfred Thesiger's Rashid Bedouin companions walk with their camels in a line in front of a high ridge of sand dotted with a few clumps of vegetation. In the distance beyond a number of 'arish huts occupied by Bani Yas villagers sit high up on a far sand dune. Beneath the settlement groves of date palms grow on the sand
