Sultanate

In this episode of the Sultanate, I sit down with Tom Ordeman to discuss Wilfred Thesiger and his novel Arabian Sands. Tom Ordeman, Jr. is an information security practitioner at Oregon State University, and a part-time military historian. When he was an anti-terrorism consultant in Kuwait from 2010 to 2012, Oman became part of his responsibility. Later, Tom fell in love with the Sultanate of Oman during a life-changing visit in 2012. He's written several articles for Small Wars Journal, and he's previously discussed Oman on the War College podcast and the International Spy Museum podcast, called Spycast. Join us as we discuss Wilfred Thesiger and Arabian Sands. Learn more at the associated episode post on my website.
