Ten Stories from Arab History: From Ancient Yemen, Through the First Islamic Civil War, to the Fall of al-Andalus by Dael Alhemyari
03/15/2026
Ten figures. Ten moments when history tilted.
from pre-Islamic Yemen to the last keys of Granada — this book follows the individuals who stood at the fault lines of change. A fugitive prince who crossed North Africa alone and built an empire from exile. A poet-king who opened his gates to an army and lost his throne forever. A philosopher condemned at home whose ideas would outlive kingdoms.
This is not a survey. Not a textbook. Each chapter is a self-contained story, drawn from historical sources and written to be read in a single sitting.
Together, they trace the arc of a civilization — its rise, its fractures, and its final transformations.
A glossary of names, places, and terms is included for readers who want to go deeper.
