About the Author
I ordered this book without much expectation, I just wanted to learn something new. It’s a short book and a quick read, but style of writing is daunting.
A Georgian Saga starts off with a brief overview of the Georgian History. It is hard to pack centuries into couple dozen pages to start with, and there is a certain bias in writer’s choice of facts to include.
Intention of the book is very clear, to show how a kid from a princely family ended up in the Indus, but again, quite disappointing.
