Description:
A startling exploration of slavery in the Islamic world from the 7th century to the present




Slavery in the Islamic world has a long, complex and controversial history. Captives and Companions is a brilliant synthesis of history and contemporary reportage, which brings to life the voices of the enslaved in stories of eighth-century concubines and ninth-century revolts, thirteenth-century slave soldiers who established dynastic rule over Egypt, Syria and Iraq, eighteenth-century corsairs and twentieth century


pearl divers in the Gulf. It also includes first-hand accounts of this legacy in the twenty-first century, including the depredations of Daesh and continuing hereditary slavery in Mali and Mauritania.




Justin Marozzi traces the extraordinary variety of enslavement in the Islamic world, which ranged from agricultural labour and domestic toil to elite concubinage, guardianship of sacred spaces, political leadership and even military command. He shows how Africa bore the brunt of the demand for slave labour, fuelled throughout the nineteenth century by expanding global markets and commodity chains. Slavers plied African coasts, traders raided inland for human cargo, and millions were marched across the Sahara into captivity. Meanwhile, North African corsairs turned the Mediterranean into a slave-raiding 'free-for-all' between Muslims, Christians and Jews.




Taking the reader on an extraordinary historical journey from Baghdad to Bamako, Tripoli to Timbuktu, Istanbul to the Black Sea, this is the riveting human drama of those caught up in one of history's most remarkable overlooked stories.

Works and feels Great
Sun protection factor: 70 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I just got back from The beautiful island of St Thomas USVI and used this product all throughout my vacation. I’m really picky about sunscreen formula and having dark combination skin, it’s pretty important that I find one I can work with. This was great! It was hydrating but didn’t feel too oily, the smell was subtle and not overwhelming, and I didn’t burn all week especially when I was on a different beach in different areas of the island it worked beautiful for me

Very sheer sunscreen.
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
As always, the company does a good job of providing sun protection without white goopy stuff lingering on the skin. Can be worn under makeup.

Perfect sunscreen for adult men... and others as well
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I live in the southwest where you have to use sunscreen on your face every day or it will impact your skin. No questions about that. I use this sunscreen every day as it's light weight enough that my face doesn't look greasy or shiny at all, it flat out works (when I miss a spot I know it) and it reasonably priced. I have no idea if this works in combination with anything else like foundation or make-up but I say for any guys out there that want a simple everyday face sunscreen you cannot go wrong with this one. Buy it, use it, protect your skin for years to come.
