Pub Year 2007, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> This book presents the first English translation of Tarikh al-Mustabsir, an account penned in the early thirteenth century by Ibn al-Mujawir. Originally hailing from the eastern Islamic world, likely Khurasan in Iran, Ibn al-Mujawir offers a captivating look at the western and southern regions of the Arabian Peninsula.Tracing his journey, Ibn al-Mujawir likely embarked on a pilgrimage to Mecca, subsequently travelling to enhance his business dealings. His expedition commenced in Mecca, moving southward through the coastal plain of Tihamah, descending into Yemen, and along the southern coastline of the peninsula. A significant portion of his account is devoted to Aden, where he meticulously documented the port's administration, taxation, trade markets, currency systems, and measures. He continued along the southern Arabian coast before presumably returning home via Iraq. His observations are marked by keen insights into the lifestyles of the local people, covering aspects such as architecture, clothing, customs, agriculture, culinary practices, and historical contexts.A Traveller in Thirteenth-Century Arabia stands as an invaluable resource for understanding the social and economic conditions of thirteenth-century southern Arabia. The narrative is characterised by a distinct sense of humour and wit, offering a perspective that enriches the historical landscape of the period. This translation not only unearths historical information but also highlights Ibn al-Mujawir?s unique style as an astute observer of the world around him, making it a notable contribution to the field of historical studies.
