In fact more of a history of the Islamic world in late-medieval and modern times, illustrated with very clear maps. See the description (below) from the dustwrapper flap.
In spite of being published in the Netherlands, the book is entirely in English.
Now out of print, and in view of the book’s size and high production standards, very unlikely to be reprinted in these straitened times.
