Al-Hind, Volume 2 Slave Kings and the Islamic Conquest, 11th-13th Centuries

By André Wink

Book Overview

During the eleventh to thirteenth centuries, Islamic conquest and trade laid the foundation for a new type of Indo-Islamic society in which the organizational forms of the frontier and of sedentary agriculture merged in a way that was uniquely successful in the late medieval world at large, setting the Indo-Islamic world apart from the Middle East and China in the same centuries.
