Author: William Dalrymple

Publisher: Flamingo
ISBN: 0-00-654774-5
Subject: Theology/History

Notes: This is a fascinating book that takes the reader through time and history. Never dull and always full of surprises: Dalrymple proves himself as a seasoned story teller. The insights into human nature as seen from many cultures will be one of many rewards.

I personally recommend this as a must read. Just be ready to be both enlightened and perhaps even shocked at the beauty and brutality that is part and parcel of history.
