Al-Kamil fit-Tarikh

الكامل في التاريخ

By Izz ad-Din ibn al-Athir 630h (1233 CE) 12 volumes

A comprehensive universal history from the beginning of time to 1231 CE, continuing where at-Tabari left off. Ibn al-Athir synthesizes multiple sources into a coherent narrative, making it more readable than at-Tabari's report-based approach. The sections on the Crusades and the Mongol invasion are especially valuable.
