Notes


The history of the Arab Empire from 680 to 860; a book complete in itself, with an introductory chaptergiving the necessary 
background of the amzing first half-century of Arab emergence covered in "The Great Arab Conquests". Here now was a 
period when the pure burning zeal of religious enthusiasm became spent, when the poverty and devotion of the early khalifs.  
The  book  cover period of palace - building at Baghdad to the assassination of the Khalif Mutawakkil. It was the era of 
dramatic expansion eastwards and westwards, when Spain was conquered and a new culture and architecture introduced. 
This scholarly, lively and lucid narrative of the achievements of the Arab Emplire makes it plain that to discount them is to 
misunderstand the Dark Ages of Europe and the shaping of Middle East history right up to our own times.
