In English; Translated from the Armenian. Series: Translated Texts for Historians, v. 31. "This, the first English translation of the 1979 critical edition of the classical Armenian text, is of interest to all those studying the Middle East in late antiquity, since Sebeos not only sets the scene for the coming of Islam but provides the only substantial non-Muslim account of the initial period of expansion. The notes are specifically aimed at the reader unfamiliar with Armenian. The historical commentary makes an original contribution to modern scholarship on the period, and assesses the accuracy and value of the text."—Publisher. // Historiography.
