This review is from: Islam in Britain, 1558-1685 (Paperback)
I would just like to reply to the unfortunate review that precedes mine, which takes issue with the pricing of this book. Matar is among the leading scholars of the Mediterranean Renaissance world in English and Arabic literatures, and this book is the work of his fine research. Your library can afford this book, and you can, too. His chapters, "Turning Turk" and "Baptising the Turk" in particular, are masterful studies of two sides of a valuable coin, and his prose is lovely. You can't afford NOT to buy this book if you are aware of the state of early modern literary studies today.
