About The Book: The Religion of the Crescent: Or, Islâm: Its Strength, Its Weakness, Its Origin, Its Influence by William St. Clair Tisdall is a critical examination of Islam, presented as a series of lectures delivered in 1891–1892. Tisdall explores the historical origins, theological foundations, and socio-political impact of Islam.
