Rezensionen
'William Dalrymple is that rarity, a scholar of history who can really write. This is a brilliant and compulsively readable book' Salman Rushdie

'Destined to become an instant classic' Amanda Foreman

'A bravura display of scholarship, writing and insight. Dalrymple manages the incredible feat of outpointing most historians and most novelists in one go. This is quite simply a stunning achievement' Independent on Sunday

'Enthralling ... brilliant, as exhaustively researched as it is brilliantly written' Mail on Sunday
