The Arab conquests in Central Asia
by H. A. R. (Hamilton Alexander Rosskeen) Gibb
Chapters
1 totalTranscriber’s Note: This text makes use of an uncommon system for transcription of Arabic. Italics, sometimes on a s ingle le t ter (highlighted in red here, but not in the text!), are semantically meaningful; and you’ll need a font that can display macrons (āēīōū) and the characters for the transliterations of Arabic letters ain (ʿ) and hamza (ʾ).
Description
"The first draft of this work was presented to the University of London ... 1921, under the title of The Arab conquest of Transoxania, as a thesis for the degree of master of arts."
