Koh-I-Noor: The History of the World’s Most Infamous Diamond

byAnita AnandandWilliam Dalrymple

Anita Anand & William Dalrymple uses Koh-I-Noor to investigate the History of the World’s Most Infamous Diamond through a carefully framed historical account. By tracing causes alongside consequences, the narrative gives readers both a grounded account and a route into the wider field of history. Throughout, the author balances an accessible narrative with the complexity needed to understand motives, constraints, and disputed interpretations. Together, these elements make Koh-I-Noor an accessible guide to the subject and the questions it continues to raise.
