Review:

Winner of the 21st World Book Award of the Islamic Republic of Iran, 2014. Winner of the Syrian Studies Association Prize for the best book 2013. 'The sophistication and originality of Borrut's approach to source analysis makes his book an important contribution not only to our knowledge of Umayyad history, but also to the reflection on late Antique/early medieval historiography in general.' 'This is the first time since 2001 that an SSA prize is awarded to a study of a pre-Ottoman issue, and as far as we know, the first time ever it is awarded to a piece of research on the Umayyad Empire.' Thomas Pierret, University of Edinburgh - IMES, Prize Committee Chair in Syrian Studies Association Bulletin, Vol 18, No 2 (2013). 'Il n'en demeure pas moins que l'ouvrage d'Antoine Borrut qui temoigne d'une vaste erudition et d'une attention constante aux debats de la recherche contemporaine, ce qu'atteste une imposante bibliographie, deviendra sans doute, a juste raison, un classique des etudes sur la Syrie du second siecle de l'hegire.' Viviane Comerro in Bulletin critique des Annales islamologiques 28 (2012).
