The early Abbasid Caliphate was an important period for Islam. The
dynasty, based in Baghdad, ruled over a vast Empire, stretching
from the Indus Valley and Southern Russia to the East to Tunisia in
the West; and presided over an age of brilliant cultural
achievements. This study, first published in 1981, examines the
Abbasid Caliphs from their coming to power in 750 AD, to the death
of the Caliph al-Ma'mun in 833 AD, when the period of Turkish
domination began. It looks at the political history of the period,
and also considers the social and economic factors, showing how
they developed and influenced political life. The work is designed
as a unique introduction to the period, and will prove invaluable
to all students involved with Islamic, Byzantine and Mediterranean
history and culture.
