Rare with 10 locations on Worldcat (OCLC 1088773848, 454433006). This was effectively issued to celebrate and support the Italo-Yemeni (Sanaa) Treaty signed in September 1926, and Italy's ambitions in Arabia, Africa, and the Red Sea. Under the Treaty Italy became the first country to recognise Imam Yahya Muhammad Hamid ed-Din as King of Yemen and his claims to British controlled Aden. In return, Italy aimed to realise benefits from trade between Yemen and its colonies in Eritrea and Somaliland, and greater influence in the Red Sea to rival Britain. Italy was considering the strategic benefits of the Farasan Islands for example, and Italy and Britain arrived at an Understanding on the status of the Red Sea islands in 1927. Published on 8 July 1927 in honour of the "Real Missione Yemenita, Ospita della Citta" (Real Yemeni Mission, Guest of the City), Rossi opens with a letter to the Italian Governor of Somalia, asking him to share this work with Mussolini. In it, Rossi pays tribute to Italy's colonial mission, to the Caprotti brothers who were resident in Sanaa (featured throughout and in the photos), and to the start of Rossi's own career as the only European journalist there. In 1880, Luigi Caprotti became the first European to open a trading house in Sanaa (the first in the Arabian Peninsula). Giuseppe joined him in 1885. Luigi died and was buried in Sanaa in 1889. Giuseppe continued the business, exporting coffee and importing for the local market until 1918, and was a key contact for other visitors including Aubrey Herbert. Rossi covers the Caprottis, a general description of the country, Hodeida, from the Tihama Plain to the mountains (coffee, trade, etc); a description of Sanaa including the houses of Jusuff Et-Taliania and Giuseppe Caprotti, the family tree of the Imam, commerce and industry, and a list of main crops. Also included is a bibliography, and list of Rossi's other works on Yemen and Islam. The map of Yemen traces Rossi's route in 1891, and credits work by Glaser. The plan of Sanaa shows its walls, mosques, cemetery, gardens, fields, etc. (Reference: British-Yemeni Society "Yemen - The Myth of Isolation".
