CARAVAN: THE STORY Of THE MIDDLE EAST by CARLETON S. COON. FOREWORD: No MAN COULD HOPE to draw together the various fields from which the materials of this book are derived if he were a scholar in any one of them. No one could feel less scholarly than I do. This becomes particularly evident when the subject of Arabic transliteration arises, as it always does in forewords to books on the Middle East. I have before me the handiwork of Hitti, Gibb, and Calverley, three men whose erudition and integrity are of the highest order, and yet I cannot find complete agreement among them. Take the word for judge. Hitti spells it qadi, Gibb adlf and Calverley qadl. At this point the lay reader may exclaim, So what? but the lay reader does not review these books. To the myopic dotter of i's and Crosser of t's, a dot under a consonant or a macron over a vowel are matters of utmost importance. The presence or absence of a dot under the k will distinguish between the word for heart and that for dog. Only a heartless dog would countenance such confusion. To avoid it I sought the aid of a most kindly and scholarly gentle man who has much more to offer than spelling: Dr. E. E. Calverley of the Hartford Seminary Foundation, editor of the Muslim World, a man of profound erudition and wisdom, as well as long editorial experience. He read the manuscript from beginning to end. His polite but firmly expressed corrections appeared on many pages, and not one of them has been ignored. He has grasped my arm on the brink of many a pitfall, theological and historical as well as ortho graphic. If despite his efforts I may be shown to have fallen in here and there, please be assured that I have not drawn him with me. For a scholar of his stature to have had the grace to bother with this work places him beyond the level of possible contamination. ....

A "caravanserai" is a roadside inn built to shelter men, goods and animals along ancient caravan routes in the Muslim world. For centuries they served as staging posts in the Middle East and Central Asia, providing accommodation to traders, pilgrims and other travellers along the famous caravan routes of the Silk Road that connected China, Central Asia and Europe overland. The caravanserais were vital nodes in what was in effect the first globalised overland network and trading system. It is estimated that some 12-15,000 caravanserais have existed but today only some 3,000 are identified or traceable. Those that have not vanished, or are not crumbling ruins, survive, in spite of the development of modern cities, as hotels, museums, shops, storage space, living quarters or garrison posts. After a first photographic report on caravanserais in north east Iran, Tom Schutyser chose the Levant region of Lebanon, Syria and Jordan as his next region for exploration. He not only shot ruined and restored caravanserais but the landscape and surroundings of these buildings, trying to capture the sense of history present in these places. And by also engaging with experts, writers and journalists on the Middle East, the photographer presents the reader with a new dimension of the debate on the region as it is today. As a fundamental element in an early form of globalisation, the caravanserai is an example of a successful vehicle for multicultural dialogue.
