Exploring the evolution of communication in the Near East, this book details the postal systems established by rulers from pre-Islamic times to the Mamluk period. These systems facilitated the rapid exchange of letters, goods, and information, acting as crucial tools for governance and espionage. By highlighting the interplay between communications technology and nomadic culture, it reveals how these networks supported empire-building and shaped Islamic history. This work is a significant addition to the understanding of pre-modern communication systems in the region.
