Saladin : And the Fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem,
[A5] Paperback - 408 pages,
Revised Edition,
by Stanley Lane-Poole.
Description :
This work first published in 1898 has become almost an authoritative account of the era of the Crusades and the life of one of Muslim world's best known leaders, Salahuddin al-Ayyubi, or Saladin.
The author's objective and unbiased research on Saladin, as well as extensive consultation of books by Muslim and European historians on the subjects, makes the book one of the best sources on the Crusades even more than a hundred years after its first edition.
This edition is the first time it has been subject to typographical revision and updates so that contemporary readers may be able to identify the names of persons and places as it is currently known.
By republishing this well acclaimed book of history, we hope to give the Muslim
Ummah the assurance that Allah,
subhanahu wa ta'ala, may yet again intervene as He did at critical moments in history when the despair of Muslims was at it's height, by raising a leader like Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi,
may Allah be pleased with him.
