Author: BROTTON, JERRY
Title: This Orient Isle: Elizabethan England and The Islamic World.
Description: First Edition; Med. 8vo; pp. xvi, 358; illustrated endpapers, 16 pages of coloured plates, 3 text illustrations, 1 double page map, notes, index, bound in original maroon cloth, title lettered in gilt on spine, dustjacket, fine copy. London; Allen Lane; 2016. The book shows that England's relations with the Muslim world were far more extensive, and often more amicable, than we have appreciated, and that their influence was felt across the political, commercial and domestic landscape of Elizabethan England. It is a startlingly unfamiliar picture of a celebrated period in international history.
