The Wisdom of Sidi Yusef and the Desert Trial
Yusef, son of Sidi Osman, travels with a caravan to Cairo but is robbed by Musa Squareen and abandoned in the desert. He endures a sandstorm and survives, meeting a caravan that helps him reach an oasis where he seeks passage to Cairo and learns of corrupt taxation by Sheik Geman and his councillor Sheib.
