Start with Bernard Lewis:

What Went Wrong: the Clash Between Islam and Modernity in the Middle East,

The Arabs in History

History, Remembered, Recovered, Invented;

The Middle East: A Brief History of the Last 2000 Years

Michael Oren's Six Days in June,

Howard Blum's The Eve of Destruction about the Yom Kippur War,

The History of the Arabs, Philip K. Hitti,

Cairo, the City Victorious by Max Rodenbeck,

The Jews of Moslem Spain by Yitzhak Baer,

And this is just a quick list off the top of my head.

The Jews Under Islam course I took at UMass Amherst in 1977 had many more that I can't immediately recall after 46 years.

But if you have reading suggestions after reading these, I'm open to reviewing them.
