The Last King in India. Wajid Ali Shah, Hardback

The Last King in India tells the story of a much-maligned king who had the misfortune to be on the throne when the East India Company usurped power. Wajid Ali Shah led a fascinating life that included marrying over 350 women, building a fantasy palace in Lucknow, writing poetry that is still acclaimed today, and surviving the 1857 Mutiny.
