Title: OLD NARRATIVE STYLE
Review: This book may not have attracted so much criticism had its author claimed a more modest aim .Here we have the old style of historical narration based on British diplomatic reports and documents.To that extent the book could be interesting.But it CERTAINLY cannot be presented as a biography of Reza Shah Pahlavi.A biography would need many more sources, interviews with people directly or indirectly knowledgeable about the subject, and rigorous analysis of the data. Above all it requires a vision, one that Ghani singularly lacks. Mr. Ghani faithfully reports what he has read in the British archives but is incapable of analyzing the events he narrates.AN INTERESTED READER
