Opis

By any measure, Nader Shah - founder of the Afsharid Dynasty - ranks as a towering figure in Iranian history. This book looks at his life: how a shepherd boy mastered fighting skills, assembled armies, reunited Iran and freed it from Afghan occupation, and crowned himself Nader Shah of Iran after usurping the Safavid throne in 1736.
