Description
 
The author has traveled extensively in the Islamic world and knows many of the monuments at first hand. His treatment of the subject is both chronological and regional, and his aim is to show not only how Islamic art developed throughout the ages, from the day that the first monuments were set up by the Umayyad caliphs of Syria until the 17th century when the creative phase of the art's history ended, but also to indicate the close ties that have always bound the Islamic world together as a unity.
