Eugene Lawrence Rogan, FBA (born 31 October 1960) is a historian of the Middle East and North Africa from the late Ottoman era to the present. After completing his undergraduate degree at Columbia University in economics, he earned a masters degree in Middle Eastern studies at Harvard University, graduating in 1984, after which he completed a doctorate in Middle Eastern studies at Harvard in 1991. Rogan joined the University of Oxford's Faculty of Oriental Studies as a lecturer in 1991. Since 1991, he has been a Fellow at St. Antony's College, Oxford, and Professor of Modern Middle Eastern History at the University of Oxford since 2015. In July 2017, Rogan was elected a Fellow of the British Academy (FBA), the United Kingdom's national academy for the humanities and social sciences. To American observers, the Arab world often seems little more than a distant battleground characterized by religious zealotry and political chaos. In this definitive account, preeminent historian Eugene Rogan traces five centuries of Arab history, from the Ottoman conquests through the British and French colonial periods and up to the present age of unipolar American hegemony. The Arab world is now more acutely aware than ever of its own vulnerability, and this sense of subjection carries with it vast geopolitical consequences. Drawing from Arab sources little known to Western readers, Rogan's The Arabs will transform our understanding of the past, present, and future of one of the world's most tumultuous region. More

New York: Grove Press Inc., 1961. First Printing [Stated]. Mass market paperback. 128 pages. Occasional footnotes. Introduction by David Schoenbrun. Format is approximately 4.25 inches by 7 inches. Ink notation on front cover. Slightly curved. Jules Roy (22 October 1907 – 15 June 2000) was a French writer. "Prolific and polemical" Roy, born an Algerian pied noir and sent to a Roman Catholic seminary, used his experiences in the French colony and during his service in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War as inspiration for a number of his works. He began writing in 1946, while still serving in the military, and continued to publish fiction and historical works after his resignation in 1953 in protest of the First Indochina War. He was an outspoken critic of French colonialism and the Algerian War of Independence and later civil war. Effectively started by members of the National Liberation Front (FLN) on November 1, 1954, during the Toussaint Rouge, the conflict led to serious political crises in France, causing the fall of the Fourth French Republic (1946–58).

Los Angeles, CA: Masjid Ibaadillah, 1992. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Wraps. [4], 35, [1] pages. Cover has some wear and soiling. Stamp on back cover. The author states that "This Commentary is intentionally not focused on either religion or politics. It has been written as a matter of conscious and from a need to provide insight into a basic problem that is affecting our entire society. It is also meant for people of all races, creeds and colors." In 1985, led by Imam Saadiq Saafir, a group of families began meeting in a basement to practice their faith. In 1986, Masjid Ibaadillah was officially founded when those families purchased a storefront on W. Jefferson Blvd. Years later as the community grew an adjacent building was purchased. Today that storefront mosque still acts as a beacon of light amidst the drug infestation and prostitution that plague the area. Between 1986 and 2004 Masjid Ibaadillah provided Islamic studies classes, established programs that fed the homeless, held interfaith events, prison outreach programs, entrepreneurial groups and more. In addition, the ILM foundation was founded by Imam Saadiq in 1998 with meager resources. It has grown into a global organization hosting Humanitarian Day events in cities across the country and internationally as well. In 2007, Imam Saadiq’s son, Jihad Saafir, became the Imam. More
