Three Camels to Smyrna: The Story of The Oriental Carpet Manufacturers Company (Anthony Wynn)
The story of the Oriental Carpet Manufacturers Company, in its day by far the biggest carpet exporter of all, explores the history of the Near and Middle East in the twentieth century from the point of view of the men and women involved in the carpet trade.
Antony Wynn, author of the acclaimed 'Persia in the Great Game', observed carpet weaving at first hand when he was the OCM buyer in Hamadan in Iran from 1972-6. Using the carpets as a connecting thread, he takes us through revolutions, wars and economic crises in Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, India, Tibet, Europe and America to show how, long before the word ‘globalism’ was invented, seemingly unrelated political and economic events affected the lives of all those involved in the trade: from the weavers in their remotest villages to the city merchants and the financiers who backed them.
Few people have any idea of the dramas gone through by those who worked to bring Oriental carpets, woven in the turbulent countries of the East, to the tranquil living rooms of the West. This book brings it all home…
