Reviews

"In this highly original book, Hoyland gives us a rare glimpse into the society and culture of Arabia before the advent of Islam in the seventh century. Hoyland challenges the myth of pre-Islamic Arabia as culturally barren and demonstrates the social vitality of everyday life in the area. The narrative is enhanced by numerous maps, figures and plates. Highly recommended for academic and large public libraries." - Library Journal

'A masterly short overview of pre-Islamic Arabia, from ancient Sheba to the advent of Islam.' - Carole Hillenbrand, BBC History Magazine'This book is thoroughly enjoyable and must be considered indispensable to anyone who is either a researcher of or interested in this field of study.' - Biblioteca Orientalis
