The Unveiling: An American Teacher in a Saudi Palace by American school teacher and author Kristin Decker. She and her husband Randy served as tutors for the children of the Saudi Royal Family in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. They learned much about the culture of Saudi Arabia, religious influence of fundamentalist Islam upon Muslim leadership, and common conflicts with Western culture. The insight gained working for the Saudi prince and princess gave way to a hope that the U.S. can improve relations with Mideastern nations and that peace and democracy in the Mideast is possible. Some have even called their story a modern day version of The King and I. The Unveiling: An American Teacher in a Saudi Palace (ISBN 1-58939-912-9, 2006, Virtual Book Worm Publishing, Inc, College Station, TX, 200 pages, $13.95 softback, www.deckerbooks.com
