Notes


In less than 50 years, the Bedouins of Arabia established the greatest empire in the world of their day, and one of the greatest 
in history.  These years, form AD 630 to AD 680, not only transformed a whole vast region but ensured that the pattern of life in 
the Middle East would never be the same again. Muhammad and his immediate successors, these Arabs who started from 
nothing, decided the framework of many things for 1300 years or more.


The fantastically short time in which this empire was built up, the ludicrous simplicity of its administration under the barefoot 


khalifs, these victories won through burning religious zeal and desperate courage by relatively untrained and unorganised 


armies all make for exciting reading. No one-volumehistory has ever covered this remarkable material before, and this is a book 


made vivid and relevant by author's knowledge fo the terrain and of the Arab character,  and the new maps he has prepared.
