I can't say enough how much I enjoyed this book. Ann Morrow has brought a past world into vivid description. Though the book was published in the 1980s, it's absolutely fascinating to read of the lives of the fabulously wealthy Maharajahs. Morrow was able to interview several of them and their descendants, which gives a well-rounded flavor to the book. It's not all praise and glory. Their mistakes and troubles are here, too. I can honestly say that each and every page was interesting.

Well done. A completely absorbing read. ( )
