This review is from: Mongols and Mamluks: The Mamluk-Ilkhanid War, 1260-1281 (Cambridge Studies in Islamic Civilization) (Paperback)
Interesting book but if you are not in academia you might be overwhelmed by it. I found it interesting to learn about this short history of Egypt and its transition to the Mamluk rule, which lasted about 300 years until it became part of the Ottoman empire. The author has used what appears to be the true Islamic spelling for names and places, which is good but very challenging for our American tongues. The book is less than 200 pages which felt about right.
