Does anyone on here have access to an English translation? It's the primary source for information of medieval history in Sudanic Africa yet the only version I've been able to find was the original Arabic version from internet archives.

http://www.archive.org/download/tarikhalsudan00sadauoft/tarikhalsudan00sadauoft.pdf

I'm aware that John Hunwick published an extended translation in English but it's kind of expensive... If need be I'll purchase the paperback but I'm looking for the convenience of an ebook for now. Would be appreciated if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Yes. I have it on my bookshelf.

I was given it as a present so I'll have to find out where I got it from and get back to you. An online supplier in the UK if I remember correctly.

^^If you get around to finding it, let me know which one it is (by whom and where it's from).. May or may not be the one I was talking about. Thanx.

I can't seem to find anything useful online. You might have to buy an English translation on Amazon
