Whereas the Roman Empire took over 200 years to reach its fullest extent, the Arab armies overran the whole Middle East, North Africa and Spain within a generation.

Today's Arab world was created at breathtaking speed. Whereas the Roman Empire took over 200 years to reach its fullest extent, the Arab armies overran the whole Middle East, North Africa and Spain within a generation. They annhilated the thousand-year-old Persian Empire and reduced the Byzantine Empire to little more than a city-state based around Constantinople. Within a hundred years of the Prophet's death, Muslim armies destroyed the Visigoth kingdom of Spain, and crossed the Pyrenees to occupy southern France. This is the first popular English language account of this astonishing remaking of the political and religious map of the world. Hugh Kennedy's sweeping narrative reveals how the arab armies conquered almost everything in their path. One of the few academic historians with a genuine talent for story telling, he offers a compelling mix of larger-than-life characters, battles, treachery and the clash of civilizations.

“小心翼翼”的大征服
简评:历史的必然与今日的幻像
重返中东——读《大征服》
这篇书评可能有关键情节透露
一时兴起写作正文之前,先走流程—— 人在家里(不是菜市场的草草翻阅),刚下马桶(已经沐浴更衣焚香拜佛),泻药(书中自有黄金屋),利益相关(风能进雨能进皇帝要书不能进),汗青堂牛逼(必须牛逼)! 作为一个对这段历史近乎完全无知的读者,其实很难对《大征服——阿拉... (展开)阿拉伯大征服成功的内外因
