Description
This audiobook narrated by Ric Jerrom traces the panoramic history of the Muslim world from the age of the Prophet Muḥammad to the the dawn of the modern era
This book describes and explains the major events, personalities, conflicts, and convergences that have shaped the history of the Muslim world. The body of the work takes listeners from the origins of Islam to the eve of the nineteenth century, and an epilogue continues the story to the present day. Michael Cook thus provides a broad history of a civilization remarkable for both its unity and diversity.
After setting the scene in the Middle East of late antiquity, the book depicts the rise of Islam as one of the great black swan events of history. It continues with the spectacular rise of the Caliphate, an empire that by the time it broke up had nurtured the formation of a new civilization. The book then goes on to cover the diverse histories of all the major regions of the Muslim world, providing a wide-ranging account of the major military, political, and cultural developments that accompanied the eastward and westward spread of Islam from the Middle East to the shores of the Atlantic and the Pacific.
At the same time, A History of the Muslim World deploys numerous quotations deriving from primary sources. These expose the listener to a variety of voices from the Muslim past, and what they have to say can be acutely intelligent and insightful.

comprehensive political and cultural history of the muslim world
This is a long book, but very well structured. It certainly helps to understand how the 56 or 57 muslim countries today have become what they are.
One thing to keep in mind is that the author sticks to the traditional history regarding the life of Muhamed, which is not contemporeous. This is a controversial topic that probably merits a book of its own though.
