Washington Irving had a lifelong interest in Spain and its history under the Moors. He crafted this portrait of Mahomet and Muslims—combining both facts and legends—in order to show not only the prophet, but also the faith. Irving wrote this work (deciding not to cite sources, as he deemed them unnecessary here) while he was living in Madrid.
