  Betreff: [Oman-l] Sirat Nasir b. Abi Nabhan (Oman related!)


  Hello all,
  =20
      I am trying to get a copy of a mid 19th century Omani text called =
the Sirat Nasir b. Abi Nabhan.  Among other things, it compares Ibadism =
with Wahhabism.  It isn't really my thing, but I am interested in some =
references to Omani opinions of Saudi raiding practices.   J. C. =
Wilkinson mentions it in a number of places, but a cursory WorldCat =
search has come up dry.  Has it been published?  Does anyone have any =
suggestions for obtaining a copy?  Might the manuscript have been =
microfilmed?
  =20
      Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.
