Abd ar Rahman, the half-blind Muslim youth, son of a Black African
mother and Arab father, in this epic biographical novel. Historically
accurate, the narrative chronicles his early life and describes his
escape from massacre by the newly rise, voracious Abbasid power. He
subsequently managed to establish a dynasty in Spain, gaining military
and political control. This book defines the origins of the Spanish
emirate, fate of the Spanish Jews, and other significant events of that
era. Written in a flowing and easy-to-read style, Falcon of The Quraysh
is a literary gem to collect.
