What it is

A world history from creation to the author's own day by a physician who became patriarch of Alexandria, covering both Christian and Islamic history.

Why it lasted

A major Arabic Christian chronicle, and a source used by Muslim and Christian historians alike.

Where to read it

Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.

These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
