Quarto 160 pages, "Jehan Rajab looks at the garments worn by three distinct groups: the 'Baladin', or townsfolk, who made up the sophisticated, commercial population and were most open to foreign influences, the 'Fellahin' or villagers, from whom came the most beautiful embroideries and the 'Bedu' whose embroidery and clothes were influenced by village styles but had their own individual features. Illustrated in b&w and color. Examines in detail the finest needlework, much of which originated from Ramallah, Bethlehem, and Hebron, and seeks to explain the amuletic or tribal significance of the great variety of embroidery motifs."
