The Minarets of Cairo: Islamic Architecture from the Arab Conquest to the End of the Ottoman Period
Doris Behrens-Abouseif

This title offers insights into the religious, historical and architectural significance of the minaret in Cairo from the Arab Conquest, through the Abbasid, Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Ottoman periods.
