Hello Qatarliving!

Can you help me find books about Qatar's history since pearls' diving till oil's discovery?

It's for academic papers in English.

I need to buy some and ship them overseas to a friend ASAP.

Thanks a lot!

You can check http://www.qatarusedbooks.wordpress.com. They advertise your used books on the website, or you can simply donate it. They just opened a facebook page http://www.facebook.com/UsedBookStoreQatar in which there going to be a community of people interested in book swapping, opening a book club etc.
