The Mameluke or Slave Dynasty of Egypt 1260-1517 A.D. by William Muir is a comprehensive historical account of the Mameluke dynasty, which ruled Egypt for over 250 years. The book explores the origins of the Mamelukes, who were originally slaves brought from Central Asia to serve as soldiers in the Arab armies. Muir delves into the political, social, and cultural aspects of the Mameluke era, examining the dynasty's rise to power, its military campaigns, and its relations with neighboring states. He also provides insight into the Mameluke's unique system of governance, which was characterized by a complex hierarchy of military commanders and administrators. The book includes detailed descriptions of the Mameluke's architecture, art, and literature, as well as their contributions to the Islamic world. Muir's engaging writing style and meticulous research make this book an essential read for anyone interested in the history of Egypt or the Middle East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
