Nowhere is the Sultanate of Oman's rich heritage more evident than in its abundant forts and castles, many of which are set against backdrops of great natural splendour. These iconic edifices are a justifiable source of pride to the Omani people and a strong magnet for the ever-increasing number of visitors to the Sultanate. Well-researched, beautifully written, and illustrated with stunning photography, the book is a fascinating and definitive work on the character, role and legacy of these remarkable monuments.
