Author of Muhammad: the man who transformed Arabia, Acorn Press, 2011.
Dr Kristin Argall worked tirelessly as my editor, adding and removing commas as well as forcing me to the thesaurus to search for synonyms. Kris' skill has made the book a much easier read for non-specialists than it might have been, and I thank her for her work.
