The original work is lost, but the abridged version, possibly composed around 1022, has survived in a handful of manuscripts. Only three manuscripts were known during De Goeje's life and he used them all for his edition, which was originally published in 1885. Its introduction includes a summary of Ibn Faqīh's life on the basis of the classical sources by De Goeje. Ibn al-Faqīh's Kitāb al-buldan offers geographical and historical details not found in other sources, and it was in itself an important source for later works, for example by Muqaddasī and Yāqūt.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill Academic Pub","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48779139121387,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":122.69,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9789004258723-1.jpg?v=1781765563","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9789004258723","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
