"A worthy biography of an important Muslim hero"--Foreword Reviews

"Superb and eminently readable"--Chicago Tribune's Printers Row

The characters are fascinating...Man's style and pacing are just right for the general reader. This account provides valuable perspective for the twenty-first century tensions between Islam and the West."—Internet Review of Books, 9/29/16
