Description

Ex-library copy with usual stamps, call numbers and pocket. A few pencil notes or markings in margins. Spine has been crudely repaired with black library tape. Edgewear to boards. A few pages are torn but still intact in text. ; Records of Civilization Sources and Studies; The life of Usamah ibn-Munqidh epitomized the height of Arab civilization as it flourished during the early Crusading period.
