"In order to penetrate through this seemingly solid wall of rock ahead we journey through a valley which is over twelve miles wide at its entrance and which narrows down until it's only about twelve feet wide. As we wander through this narrow gorge marveling at the pink oleanders everywhere about us our Arab companions pop away with their pistols at the lizards."
-Lowell Thomas
“With Lawrence in Arabia” (1919)
