Description - The Race for Paradise by Paul M. Cobb
A history of the Crusades written from the Muslim perspective, stressing the diversity of Muslim experiences of European holy war, not merely as victims or victors. The tale ranges across the medieval Mediterranean, from Spain to Sicily to Syria, with stops in north Africa and Turkey. It deals with military confrontations and enigmatic heroes such as the great sultan Saladin, but also peaceful diplomatic wranglings, commercial interaction, and cultural encounters.
