About This Novel

This book cuts through the fog of legends and recreates the Arabs' maritime history from hazy prehistory to the golden age of the Middle Ages. The competition and exchanges between Arabs and Phoenicians, Greeks, and Africans, the opening of routes between the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf, the "cannibalism" in Guangzhou and Quanzhou in Chinese history books, navigation stories in classic documents such as "One Thousand and One Nights", historical pictures and archaeological discoveries of ancient sailing ships, and the maritime activities of pirates, merchants, and armies. These interesting contents can be read in this little book for everyone.
