First published in 1929, A Baghdad Chronicle was the work of Reuben
Levy, then Lecturer in Persian at the University of Cambridge. The
aim of his study was to present an account of Baghdad under the
Abbasid Caliphate which included not only the record of conflict
and political history of the city, but as much as possible of its
social history, with descriptions of the manners and customs of its
people. The study thus draws extensively from biographies in
addition to historical annals and Levy's own knowledge of the city
to create a coherent narrative. It will be of interest to anyone
wishing to learn about the history of Baghdad from an early
twentieth-century perspective.
