The book explores the complex historical relationship between Islam and Christianity from Muhammad's time to the Reformation. Richard Fletcher highlights the cultural and trading interactions during the Arab control of the Mediterranean, while emphasizing the deep-seated mutual suspicion each religion held toward the other. With a focus on clarity and scholarly rigor, the narrative avoids moral judgments, inviting readers to reflect on the implications of this historical dynamic for contemporary society.
