Fatimid history is a chapter of both Mediterranean and Islamic
history. In the period covered by the book (10th-12th centuries)
profound changes took place in the Eastern Mediterranean affecting
the history of the region.
Divided into three parts this study deals with the political
history of the Fatimid period, the structure of the Fatimid state
and the interplay between state and society.
The book is a contribution to the study of Islamic military history
addressing such topics as: the formation and upkeep of black slave
armies, the role of Christian-Armenian troops in twelfth-century
Egypt and military and naval aspects of the Fatimid wars with the
Crusaders. Other topics examined are the internal policies of the
Fatimid state: notably, among them, the religious policies of the
Fatimid regime, the involvement of the state in the urban life of
the Fatimid capital city, Fustat-Cairo, and Fatimid attitudes
toward non-Muslim communities.
