Show moreThe second volume of this book provides a history of Sudan, and begins with an account of the raid of Seneferu, King of Egypt, in B.C. 3766, and concludes with events, which took place in A.D. 1904. Chapters are dedicated to the kingdom of Piankhi, the Ptolemaic period, the rise of Christianity, the rule of Muhammad, the role of gold in determining Sudans course in history, and the British in contemporary Sudan. The history in this volume is comprehensive and gives the dates of rule of kings, as well as the dates of key battles. The volume gives a valuable overview of the Christian missionaries in Sudan and the role of the River Nile in transport and development over time. by E.A. Wallis Budge.

Show moreEl-Khazraji, called Ibn Wahhas, was a Yemeni historian, who wrote under the Turkish Rasulid Dynasty in Yemen. He died late 812/early 1410, aged over 70. The biographical dictionaries give virtually nothing on his life, except Sakhawi, that states that he met him in Zabid. According to Hadjdji Khalifa, El-Khazraji wrote three histories of the Yemen, impelled, so he says, by the prevailing disregard for the study of history. This work is the best-known part of the one he wrote with events dynasty by dynasty. It is for earlier times very much a compilation, drawing on authors like Baha al-Dir al-Djand. The fulsome eulogies in it of the Rasulids, and his comparatively late date, have led G. R.
