Description from the publisher:

The History of Prophets and Kings by Tabari, here rendered as the History of al-Tabari, is by common consent the most important universal history produced in the world of Islam. It has been translated here in its entirety (Volume 5 forthcoming) for the first time for the benefit of non-Arabs, with historical and philological notes for those interested in the particulars of the text. Tabari's monumental work explores the history of the ancient nations, with special emphasis on biblical peoples and prophets, the legendary and factual history of ancient Iran, and, in great detail, the rise of Islam, the life of the Prophet Muhammad (upon whom be peace), and the history of the Islamic world down to the year 915.
