Description
Ibn al-Athir, who died in the 13th century, is one of the most important historians of Islam.
His major chronicle, the Kamil fi'l-Ta'rikh, is one of the greatest achievements of Muslim historiography for the range and comprehensiveness of the sources it assembled and for its narrative, covering the whole sweep of Islamic history up to his own lifetime.
This volume of D.S. Richards' translation covers the early years of conquest and the period of the 'great sultanate'.
With its copious annotations, the translation will open a direct window into this period of history for non-Arabic readers and will be an invaluable aid and resource for students and scholars.
