Comment on quality of printBy Mukhtar KhalilThe book is well written and much needed on the subject. It covers the subject of American mosque in great detail and provides ectant examples from areas generally not covered; like West Africa; etc.My ratings of less than 5 star is due to the quality of the book I bought from the "used" section in paperback for less money so I got a good deal; but when I compare it with the library hard cover copy I had; the pictures in the "used" copy seem faded; tones dont read well; and the delicate pencil drawings of the great mosque architectural examples are washed out and toneless.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
