The Muslim Discovery of Europe
"Full of rare and exact information…A distinguished work." —New York Review of Books

Slowly, inevitably, Europe and Islam came together, through trade and war, crusade and diplomacy. The ebb and flow between these two worlds for seven hundred years, illuminated here by a brilliant historian, is one of the great sagas of world history.
