Early Islamic Armies

[Goodridge]

Hey all,

I am doing some research on the earliest Islamic armies and conquests (the first few hundred years, around 600-1000). Does anyone know of any good online resources for this era?

I want to look at how the armies evolved and what they were like. This is largely before the Mamluk/Ghulam/Jannissary armies rose up, which makes it difficult to find much info.

Anyone have any information?

Thanks!
