What is The march from Medina : a revisionist study of the Arab conquests about?

This book focuses on the rapid transformation of the early Muslim armies. It deals with recruitment, leadership, and motives for war, and reveals the resourcefulness of the Muslim military establishment. The author explains many problems of source interpretations, discusses the reconciliation of conflicts in the source material, and contrasts popular and romantic notions about the conquests that obscure the process of war. Although the background of The March from Medina begins with the Arabs and the wars of Antiquity, the scope of the book focuses on the first stage of the Muslim conquest movement. Numerous maps accompany the text and two charts of battle array.
