True perspective of Arabs in sea

Harold Robins has master minded a fiction on Arab legacy. He has protrayed Arab culture, their love for lust and style of life in sea, so truely that I was unable to go to bed with unfinished book. The author's vision and sense of imagination is amazing and probably intutive. Library must have such books.
