Good evening,
Planning to visit Andalusia in a short while. Looking to get a good understanding of its Moorish history through some literature.
Did some searches on Amazon and came up with two books: one written by Richard Fletcher and another by Maria Rosa Menocal => The Ornament of the World: How Muslims, Jews and Christians Created a Culture of Tolerance in Medieval Spain
Haven't bought either one; was looking to see what you think would be the best reference book on the topic ?
Any guidance would be apperciated
I am more interested more in military and geo-political themes rather than religious and cultural ones
