Book of the Month: Matthew of Edessa’s Chronicle, Volume 1

Our Book of the Month for May will be volume 1 of Matthew of Edessa’s Chronicle, translated by Robert Bedrosian.

This chronicle covers the Near East from the 10th to 12th centuries, a world where one can find Armenians, Byzantines, Arabs, Seljuks, Iranians, and Crusaders. This volume is part of a three-volume set (the other two will be our Books of the Month for June and July), and covers the years 952 to 1052. You can learn more about it from Sophene Books.
