Spain Under the Crescent Moon
Spain under the Crescent Moon, first published in 1953, is a classic work of historical and cultural appreciation by the Scottish-born writer, Angus Macnab. It is widely considered one of the most evocative accounts of the “Golden Age” of Islamic Spain (Al-Andalus).
Macnab vividly describes the architecture of the Alhambra and the Great Mosque of Córdoba, the chivalry of the knights, and the wisdom of the Sufi masters. His goal is to show the modern Westerner that “Dark Age” Europe actually contained a luminous “Crescent Moon” that preserved the highest intellectual and spiritual traditions of antiquity.
