One of the oldest known breeds of domesticated dogs, the Saluki traveled throughout the Middle East with desert tribes, who valued the dogs for their ability to hunt gazelles. Famously painted on the walls of the Pharaohs’ tombs, the Salukis’ history intrigued English dog enthusiasts who were instrumental in popularizing the breed and importing it to Europe and the United States in the early 20th century. This book tells the story of those who brought the Saluki to the West, most notably Florence Amherst, who discovered the dogs while in Egypt and went on to breed 50 litters. Other world travelers who fell under the Salukis’ spell included Lady Anne Blunt, Austen Layard and Gertrude Bell. Also covered are lesser-known Saluki aficionados, mainly military officers who hunted with their hounds in Iraq, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt and sought to replicate that experience at home.

”Marooned in his unresolved past, the nervous person cannot set a course for the future.”Robert Von Reichmann MD.Peter Federson's life was littered with divorces, lost jobs, and failure in college, which led to a miserable tour of Vietnam, and a checkered life in the 21st century. One day Pete realized that it was his own doing.”Please God, let me start over again!”24-hours later, fate threw Pete backward forty years. Now he has the chance to earn a passing grade for the 20th century and promotion to the 21st.'But a dark shadow follows him through the decades and sabotages his efforts, so Spring 1971 threatens to be a morbid echo of itself.58-year-old Peter Federson married the wrong girl and rejected his true love. He flunked out of college, which led to a failed army enlistment, failed jobs, and failed relationships. One day, Pete took a handful of pills and washed them down with vodka in his trashy trailer in suburban Chicago.In a haze, Peter took a train to Carbondale, Illinois, and passed out at Southern Illinois University, where he awakened in 1971.Peter Federson is in college again.Now Pete can marry his true love, Catherine, pass algebra—the course that got him thrown out of college the first time and finally earn his degree.But a malevolent algebra instructor tries to flunk him, his wife-to-be won't let him go, a riot shakes the campus, and something within Pete doesn't want to change.SIU's colors are maroon and white, and the Saluki is its mascot, but maroon has a more sinister meaning in this story, for Peter Federson is marooned in 1971—a Saluki Marooned.

The Saluki is a dog breed that is well-known for its refined good looks. The Persian Greyhound is also known as the Royal Dog of Egypt. The Saluki is a breed of dog that relies on its eyesight rather than its sense of smell when hunting. Key features and background on the Saluki breed are listed below. 1. Salukis have a tall, narrow head and a deep chest, and they are lean and athletic canines. Their short, smooth coats come in a rainbow of colors, from cream and fawn to red and grizzle and even tricolor. Their tail is carried in a swoop, and their ears hang low and forward. 2. The Saluki is one of the oldest dog breeds in existence, having a background that stretches back thousands of years. They were valued by ancient Egyptian nobility and were said to have originated in the Middle East, where they were used to hunt gazelles and hares. 3. Salukis have a reputation for having a calm and confident demeanor. Although they tend to be shy around strangers, once they get to know you, they can be quite devoted and cuddly. They get along well with kids and other canine companions but may be prey-driven and chase after small animals. 4. Exercise Needs: Salukis are a high-energy breed and require regular exercise to keep healthy and happy. They need a safe, gated place to run around in since they like doing so. They are renowned for their lightning quickness and deft agility. 5. Grooming: Their short coat takes very little attention, however it may be kept in good shape with regular brushing. In general, Salukis don't tend to shed much and have a mild scent. 6. Heart disease, hip dysplasia, and other hereditary disorders affect some Salukis, as they do other dog breeds. Employing a breeder who checks for these diseases is crucial. 7. The average Saluki is between medium and giant in size. The average height of an adult Saluki is 23 to 28 inches (58 to 71 cm) and their average weight is 40 to 65 pounds (18 to 29 kg). Salukis, as a breed, are extraordinary in appearance and history, and they also possess a natural talent for hunting. For those who have the time and energy to give them the exercise and attention they require, these dogs may be wonderful companions
