This diminutive book provides basic information about the history of the Islamic Empire, beginning with the establishment of Islam and ending with the Mughals. The density of text may turn off readers; there's a lot of information packed onto each page. Thumbnail photographs of artwork, artifacts, and ruins, most from the British Museum's collection, help readers visualize the setting. Reading list, timeline, websites.
