A History of the Arab Peoples

A History of the Arab Peoples Author(s): Albert Hourani Format: Book

One of the classic volumes, written by one of the great men of Arab history. However, both its focus on "ethnic" history and its starting point with the era of the prophet Muhammad (were there no "Arabs" before the 6th century CE?) make it a problematic study.
