Tiptree, Essex There is a dry wind blowing through the East, and the parched grasses wait the spark ... Islam is the only thing to knit up such a scattered empire. (John Buchan, Greenmantle) Acknowledgements Most books owe a great deal to the advice and co-operation offered to their authors. This is certainly true of the present work, which attempts to comprise a large span, timewise and spacewise. Among those who have generously given me their time and counsel are the following: Professors Bernard Lewis of Phila- delphia, Elie Kedourie and Anthony D. Smith of London, Albert H. Hourani of Oxford, Farhad Kazemi of New York City, Zekai Ertugrul Okte of Istanbul, and Erciimend Kuran and Orhan Kologlu of Ankara. My assistant at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Gershon Lokay, has demonstrated no less resourcefulness in locating material than zeal in photo- copying it. I am greatly indebted to them all, but the final responsibility is of course mine. Grants from the Truman Research Institute, Jerusalem; St Antony's College, Oxford; and the Sherman Foundation, London, have assisted me in travel to and research of various archives and libraries, to all of which I would like to express my gratitude. Finally, very special thanks are due to Oxford University Press, most particularly to Dr Henry Hardy, Nina Curtis, Janet Moth, Elizabeth Sweeney, Jane Robson, and David Neuhaus. J.M.L.

Description:
Few ideas have excited such passions over the years as Pan-Islam, and few have been the subject of so many contradictory interpretations. Based on a shared religious sentiment, the politics of Muslim unity and solidarity have had to contend with the impact of both secularism and nationalism. Profess
