About the Book
Dar es-Salaam is one term used to refer to the Muslim World. Literally translated, this means "the house of peace." As I was growing up in a small town in the US, I never imagined that I would see much of this world; it is a place to which few people travel without purpose. It was only after being exposed, if only briefly, to this culture when I was in India that I decided to learn more about it.
That encounter changed my perceptions of the world and convinced me to extend my travels to Pakistan and the Middle East. By the time I reached Iran, months later, I had decided to visit as much of the Muslim world as I reasonably could and write a book about my experiences. My journey ultimately lasted thirty-nine months.
This book represents the culmination of that journey. While it may not be entirely free of bias, I hope it shows a different side of the lives of Muslim people.
It seems fitting that I wrote this book not far from the house in which I grew up, in Salem, Ohio – a town whose name is derived from salaam, the Arabic word for peace.
There are two sizes available for this book: Standard Landscape and Large Landscape. The Standard Landscape size has three cover options: Softcover, Hardcover with Dust Jacket and Hardcover with Imagewrap. The Large Landscape version has two hardcover options. See my other books for other size or cover options.
