Summary

Description
English: Samuel Barrett Miles (2 October 1838 - 28 August 1914) was a British Army officer who served as a diplomat in various Arabic-speaking countries, notably Oman, which he came to know better than any other European of the time. The notes that he made were published after his death as The Countries and Tribes of the Persian Gulf.

This photograph was published as the frontispiece to The Countries and Tribes of the Persian Gulf (1919: Harrison and Sons) and would have been taken before his death in 1914. The photographer is not identified and the publisher is no longer in business.
