Description

The Journey of the Diamond focuses on England, a country with over two hundred years of war, plunder, and dominance over India and its history of the great Koh-i-Noor diamond, tracing its journey from the beginning of Babur?s reign, the descendant of Timur, to its place in the crown of Queen Elizabeth in England.

The author takes us on a journey with the great Koh-i-Noor diamond, detailing its history from the start of Babur?s reign, the descendant of Timur, to its placement in the crown of Queen Elizabeth in England. Through this narrative, we become familiar with the various phases of the colonization of India, from powerful rulers like Humayun and Akbar the Great to indulgent monarchs like Jahangir.

The Journey of the Diamond explores the close and friendly relations between the kings of India and Iran, such as Shah Tahmasp of the Safavid dynasty, and contrasts them with the imperial conquests of Nader Shah Afshar in India, detailing the involvement of other Iranians like Mohammad Saeed Ardestani in India. All these events culminate in the Koh-i-Noor?s two journeys to Iran.
