Catalogue of Arabic Books in the British Museum

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This catalogue, for many years out of print, was originally published in two volumes in 1894 and 1901. It was followed in 1926 by a Supplementary Catalogue of Arabic Printed Books compiled by A. G. Ellis and A. S. Fulton, and in 1959 by a Second Supplementary Catalogue of Arabic Printed Books compiled by A. S. Fulton and M. Lings. The present reprint has been undertaken so that all three catalogues shall be in print and available to scholars at one time. Together, they cover the whole range of Arabic printed books acquired by the British Museum up to 1957.
