A Saracen stronghold throughout the long history of the Crusades, Damascus served as the capital city for Nur al-Deen, Saladin, and other medieval Muslim leaders. From this prime vantage point comes a remarkable contemporary account of the early Crusades, written by one of the city's leading citizens. Ibn Al-Qalānisī, a distinguished scholar of literature, theology, and law, was twice elected mayor of Damascus. His Chronicle begins in 1097, in the early years of the First Crusade, and concludes in 1159, the year before his death at the age of 90.An informative introduction sets the scene just prior to invasion by the Crusaders. The colorful narrative relates the particulars of life during wartime; in addition to his accounts of battles, blockades, and diplomatic negotiations, Ibn Al-Qalānisī paints vivid and decidedly biased portraits of the personalities on both sides of this holy war, from gallant commanders and intrepid troops of his native land to their opposition, the "infidels" and: accursed ones."
The author based his work on both written documentation and oral reports, the latter sometimes transcribed from the lips of actual participants. Intended primarily as a textbook for students, this translation by H. A. R. Gibb renders the Arabic text as literally as possible, with minimal annotation, and constitutes an indispensable resource for anyone who needs a firsthand account of the early Crusades.

Good alternative to zip ties
Size: 6inches-60PCS
These ties are an excellent alternative to traditional zip ties. They’re sturdy, well‑made, and far more economical in the long run. Unlike zip ties, which you have to cut and throw away, these can be untied and reused over and over without losing their grip. They keep cables and wires neatly organized, and the ability to reuse them makes them both practical and cost‑effective. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a smarter solution than disposable zip ties.

Defiantly worth having
Size: 6inches-60PCS
The Nettbe reusable cable ties are wonderful. So tired of having to dig thru the cords in my drawer. This product makes so easy to keep cords neat, secure, organized and easy to find. The product is very easy to use and don't have to worry about the ties becoming a mess themselves because they stick together. The cable ties are not thick, seem very durable with them being made out of quality material and won't have to worry about them getting dirty.

Super handy for organizing cords
Size: 6inches-60PCS
I’ve been using these cable ties for my home office, and they make managing cords so much easier. They’re adjustable, reusable, and hold cables securely without slipping.
I like that they come in a big pack, so I can organize all my chargers, headphones, and computer cords without running out. The hook-and-loop design is flexible but strong, and it keeps everything neat and tangle-free. Definitely a small item that makes a big difference.
