  • Lots to Learn Here

    This is actually a history book so considering that fact it is an easy read! The Arabic words are difficult but if learning more Arabic words is your goal as is mine then it's the perfect thing for reading! The generations go past very fast but it's in lightning to learn so much about an area that is it normally in history books. As I said… Lots to learn! I heartily recommend it.
