"Nile Green is one of our finest global historians. In this wonderfully insightful and entertaining book, his remarkable narrative skills are on full display as he illuminates the cross-cultural encounters of a group of Iranian students abroad in early-nineteenth-century London."--Pankaj Mishra, author of From the Ruins of Empire: The Revolt against the West and the Remaking of Asia "Nile Green is among our foremost scholars of the East-West encounter in the nineteenth century, able to get us deeply inside Persian and Muslim culture of the era and to contextualize it in the age of European colonialism."--Juan Cole, author of The New Arabs: How the Millennial Generation Is Changing the Middle East "The Love of Strangers is a pleasure to read. Green enables us to reconceptualize England during the late Georgian period of Jane Austen." --Michael H. Fisher, author of Migration: A World History "Erudite and highly readable. By taking the interactions between these Iranian students and their British contacts as they were experienced--as opposed to as we understand them today in our postcolonial frameworks--Green has managed to give life to nineteen-century England in a new and exciting way."--Naghmeh Sohrabi, author of Taken for Wonder: Nineteenth-Century Travel Accounts from Iran to Europe
