Summary 
In the 6th century AD, the Near East was divided between two venerable empires: the Persian and the Roman. A hundred years on, and one had vanished forever, while the other seemed almost finished. Ruling in their place were the Arabs: an upheaval so profound that it spelled, in effect, the end of the ancient world. In The Shadow of the Sword, Tom Holland explores how this came about. Spanning Constantinople to the Arabian desert, and starring some of the most remarkable rulers who ever lived, he tells a story vivid with drama, horror and startling achievement.

Summary 
In this sweeping history--the third in his trilogy of books on the ancient world--Tom Holland describes how the Arabs emerged to carve out a vast domain in a matter of decades, overcoming odds to create an imperial civilization. With profound bearing on the most consequential events of our time, Holland ties the story of Islam's ascent to the crises and controversies of the present.
