In the Shade of the Tree: A Photographic Odyssey Through the Muslim World

This is a beautiful photo-intensive book of the Islamic world based on the last ten years of the travels of Peter Sanders, a world-class photographer based in the UK.

Reflecting on the wonderful photos in this volume, one finds the architecture, people, and landscapes of the Muslim world somehow communicating the subtle and sublime spirituality of Islam and the demeanor of a land and people little understood in the West.

Such a collection of excellent photography has the uncommon authority of dispelling stubborn myths in a way that no lecture or academic treatise can dare attempt. The photos are accompanied by quotations from the Qur'an, the Prophet , or scholars.
