Muscat Dhows Arbitration: The Counter-case

This book is a historic record of a legal case heard by the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, Netherlands, in 1905. The case was brought by the Sultanate of Muscat and Oman, which accused British-ruled India of interfering with Omani trade by confiscating Omani dhows. The book includes official documents, legal arguments, witness testimony, and the court's final decision. This is a fascinating glimpse into a little-known chapter of colonial history, and its impact on the people and economies of the Persian Gulf region.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
