Christians, Muslims, and Jews in the Age of Discovery
With elegance and erudition, Lewis explores the climactic year 1492 as a clash of        civilizations--a clash not only of the New World and the Old, but also of        Christendom and Islam, of Europe and the rest. In the same year that Columbus set        sail across the Atlantic, he reminds us, the Spanish monarchy captured Granada, the        last Muslim stronghold on the peninsula, and also expelled the Jews. Lewis uses        these three epochal events to explore the nature of the European-Islamic conflict,        tracing Christian Europe's path from being a primitive backwater on the edges of the        vast, cosmopolitan Caliphate, through the heightening rivalry of the two religions,        to the triumph of the West over Islam.
