| Summary | "History of the Moorish Empire in Europe, Vol. 2 (of 3)" by S. P. Scott is a comprehensive historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the complexities of the Moorish Empire's influence in Europe, particularly focusing on events from the invasion of the Arabs into Sicily to the rise of the Moslem domination in various regions. It likely discusses the cultural, political, and military aspects that shaped the historical landscape during this period. At the start of this volume, the text introduces the geographical and historical significance of Sicily, highlighting its fertile land and strategic location in the Mediterranean. The narrative details the initial Arab invasions that led to significant territorial changes, such as the siege and eventual capture of Syracuse. Scott sets the stage for the exploration of Moslem expansion in Europe, emphasizing the decline of Byzantine influence and the impacts of internal conflicts as the Arab forces established their rule. The author's tone reflects both admiration for the cultural achievements of the time and a critical understanding of the tumultuous events that led to the eventual challenges faced by the Christian powers. This opening portion outlines the complex interplay of warfare, societal change, and religious conflict that characterized the era of the Moorish Empire.
