From the Medina Azahara, his palatial city near Cordoba, and North Africa to the western Mediterranean and the central lands of Islam, this book charts the extent of Abd-ar-Rahman III s territorial and military conquests and describes his extravagant lifestyle, taking into account the political and religious context of the 10th century.
