Sir John Glubb (1897-1986) spent thirty years in the Middle East and wrote many books on the Arab world, including War in the Desert: An R.A.F. Frontier Campaign and A Short History of the Arab Peoples.
The only sound, comprehensive, and 'popular' work in English on the
life, times, and people of the Prophet.
*Kirkus*
The best popular life of the Prophet of Islam available in the
English language. An extraordinary accomplishment.
*Los Angeles Times*
Glubb's long acquaintance with the Arabs has enabled him to make
sense out of obscure legends and to bring long-dead battles to
life. His book stings like caravan dust and sweeps forward like a
charge of Bedouin cavalry.
*Newsweek*
Glubb has written a history that is as fascinating to read as it is
immediately and permanently valuable.
*Cincinnati Enquirer*
