Arab Empire
29.99 €
The book by the famous English historian, military and statesman is devoted to the birth and development of the Muslim state in Arabia under Muhammad and the conquest campaigns of the Arabs, which resulted in the creation of the Muslim Caliphate, often called the "Arab Empire". The book provides a comprehensive look at the history of this truly powerful state. The formation of Muslim society, the formation of religion and ideology of Islam, the emergence and development of institutions of power, the cultural upsurge of the Arab world - this is by no means a complete list of topics touched upon by the English researcher. At the same time, the book by Sir John Glabb (1897-1986) is by no means a dry list of scrupulously presented facts. The internal political strife and intrigue inevitable for a rapidly developing young state, religious clashes between Kharijites and Shiites, the struggle for supremacy between representatives of dynasties - all the historical realities of the time acquire on the pages of this work the meaning and taste of real life. This impression of encounter with a great era is reinforced by the fact that Glabb spent thirty-six years in the Middle East, initially as a British Crown Counselor to the Iraqi government and later seconded to the famous Arab Legion, which he led from 1939 to 1956.
