A fantastic history of the last days of the Ayyubid dynasty and the rise of the Mamluks. It is based on many sources, with numismatic sources playing an important part.

It covers coinage of Cairo (Aibak, Qutuz, Baybars I), Alexandria ( 'Ali, Qutuz, Baybars), Damascus (the Ayyubid al-Nasir Salah al-Din Yusuf II, Hulagu, Baybars I) Aleppo (including Lu 'lu 'id), Hamah, Harran, Mosul (Badr al-Din Lu 'lu, with and without Möngke, al-Salih Isma 'il with Baybars), al-Bawazig, Baghdad (al-Mustasim Billah, the last Abbasid Caliph, Hulagu, Möngke), Irbil. There are photos of the different coin types, including the only reference I have with Ilkhan coppers of Irbil. Text in German, ex James Farr Collection Library.
