Al-Andlaus and Islamic Spain Free PDF 

Picture
Originally published in 1992 as a collaborative project between the Metropolitan Museum of Art on New York and the Alhambra in Granada, 
this book/catalog  - 5 years in the making - offers a contribution from twenty-four international scholars writing on art, architecture, and the cultural climate of al-Andalus.

Beautiful illustrations and engaging articles, this is one you may want to grab and store in your digital library.

Focussing on the legacy left by Islam on the European and new World shores, these essays explore the artefacts and images that were originally displayed in Granada before moving on to New York.

This wonderful book is FREE and in PDF format and is a pretty large file. You may not want to download it on your phone if you have a limited data plan.
