Read A Chronicle of Damascus 1389-1397 Volume I (The English Translation) - Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Sasra | PDF

Not only the first to review, but I had to add this into Goodreads, which is always fun.Definitely not for the layperson, this is part of Ibn Sasra's Pearls, and the narrative largely covers Barquq's doings in Damascus, so a kind of window into Mamluk shenanigans over the two-year period. Although exhaustive and a little tedious, it is unique in being a contemporary's accounts of the goings-on in Damsacus. Tamerlane figures in here as well, so of larger interest outside the city scope.
