5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, reads like a novel, not history!, 12 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This, together with the other 2 books in this trilogy by Morris remain among my favourite books. The rich storytelling, the attention to detail and the many amusing footnotes to the history of the British Empire are fascinating. I have been to many of the places Morris describes, and he brings them to life, even now.
