When he was assassinated in 1896, Nasir al-Din Shah had sat on the Peacock throne for nearly half a century. A colourful, complex figure, he is frequently portrayed as indolent and self-indulgent. This book gives us both a biography of the man and an analysis of the institution of monarchy in modern Iran.
