As business opportunities are drawing unprecedented numbers of Western families to the Arabian Gulf region, "Diary from the Middle East" is the book to read. Written from her home in Qatar, Mrs. Vaughan's Diary is not a how-to book on living in the area, but rather an honest look at day-to-day life for expatriates who may only know the region from television news reports. 'Definitely a necessary read for families contemplating a move to the region."-Robin Pascoe, www.expatexpert.com, author of "A Moveable Marriage"; "Homeward Bound"; "Culture Shock: Successful Living Abroad, A Wife's Guide"; "Culture Shock: A Guide to Customs and Etiquette, A Parent's Guide and Goodbye Room No.3."
