""The best biography of the year, Axworthy's The Sword of Persia has rescued Nader Shah from obscurity and created not only a brilliant human portrait of tyranny, conquest, cruelty and insanity but also a superb introduction to Iran itself which makes this book not just a beautifully-written compelling work but one that is also utterly relevant today.""--Simon Sebag Montefiore""a very successful [biography]. Michael Axworthy knows his Persia...and he writes well: this is an excellent story, very ably told.""--David Morgan, Times Literary Supplement""Michael Axworthy has done an outstanding job of trying to understand what moved Nadir...the result is a book that is informative and a pleasure to read, for specialists and non-specialists alike. Thanks to the author's deft handling of the subject, Nadir as a person becomes real and his actions become understandable...well researched...this a great book and an excellent read that you can even take to the beach.""--Willem Floor, Middle East Journal""both scholarly and highly readable from start to finish...valuable for both specialists and graduate students of history...this new volume presents a wealth of information hitherto unknown and offers some fresh and unique interpretations on the rise and reign of Nader Shah Afshar.""--George Bournoutian, American Historical Review""I have read this book with considerable pleasure and admiration...Axworthy has taken account of the latest research, contributed to that himself, and produced a book that will be welcomed by specialists and the wider history minded public.""--Charles Melville, Pembroke College, Cambridge""Nader Shah has been too long neglected, and Michael Axworthy's The Sword of Persia provides new and valued insight into his critical role in Iran's 18th-century history.""--Professor Gene Garthwaite, Dartmouth College""This is, without any doubt, a valuable book.

Synopsis
Nader Shah, ruler of Persia from 1736 to 1747, embodied ruthless ambition, energy, military brilliance, cynicism and cruelty. His reign was filled with bloodshed, betrayal and horror. Yet Nader Shah is central to Iran's early modern history. From a shepherd boy he rose to liberate his country from foreign occupation, and make himself Shah. He took eighteenth-century Iran from political collapse to become the dominant power in the region, recovering Herat and Kandahar, conquering Moghul Delhi, plundering the enormous treasures of India, repeatedly defeating Ottoman Turkey, and overrunning most of what is now Iraq.But suspicion and avarice led him to persecute the Persian people as savagely as any foreign conqueror had done. "The Sword of Persia" recreates the story of a remarkable, ruthless man, capable of both charm and brutality, who became a monster of insane cruelty. It is a rich narrative, full of dramatic incident, including much new research into original Iranian and other material, which will prove indispensable to historians and students.

beautiful work, well researched, informative all encompassing. It's a sad story, maybe that's how life really is. Not a fairy tale and some stories don't have a happy ending!
This was a fun read, very informative and well written. I'm no scholar, but I am convinced that this author knows what he is talking about.Nader Shah was pretty hardcore. For a while, he had an army that would beat you half to death with your own golden curtain-rod and then immediately stop at his command and hand you back your property with a smile and apology, if the boss said so, at least.But Nader Shah was more than hardcore, he was a genuine badass. He called himself The Son of the Sword (or something of that sort) because that was how he kicked everyones ass. It kind of brings me new meaning to the term Son of a Gun... But anyways, if you have ever thought that anyone, ever, was badass, then I challenge you to read this book; you will probably think very little of your hypothetical hero afterwards- assuming of course that this author is as accurate in his work as he is reputable among the learned crowd who brought this piece to my attention. I don't want to spoil the book for you by giving away the details, but I will say that the reported badassness of Nader Shah even extended to the ranks of his harem. Read the book to find out; it's at the end. It's hardcore, really. I don't want to spoil it for you, but I will just say that I wish I had chicks like this calling me their King.But Nader Shah was not just some mean thug though, the ladies and sensitive type can appreciate his many pro-woman and pro-family stances, such as his policies against his army raping women and stealing them away as slaves and brides, except for maybe one or two occasions. Read the book and judge for yourselves ladies.And guys can appreciate that for a long time, he was pretty focused on maintaining justice for the average Joe, or over there, the average "Reza" or something. Kind of... I mean, his military did get expensive as hell, leading to heavy taxation... Read the book to find out.Anyways, the book was very well written, seemingly well researched (but who am I to say? I mean, there were a ton of attributions and cited material at the end of the book, so it looked pretty convincing to me...) and reading about Nader Shah was incredibly fun and at many times it amazed me that what I was reading was really a person's life in history and not a script for a Hollywood blockbuster. In fact, this would make a badass movie. It would probably be ruined though if it was made for the theaters, it would have to be done by AMC or something- they seem to be doing good with The Walking Dead and it seems like Season 2 is only going to get better. HBO could do good also- they tend to do good casting and I give them total props for putting out The Sopranos and The Wire (which is the greatest show ever. Ever!) If you read this book, you will know what I am talking about though; you wouldn't believe that this guy was real. Lots of potential...So if it is your first time ever hearing of Nader Shah, or your seventh time like me, I would recommend this book as a great start. Hell, if you know everything about Nader Shah I would also recommend that you read this and say a thing or two afterwards about this book- your opinion would be more useful than mine, probably. But for those reading this for my opinion, then yea, buy this book, it is awesome.
Fascinating story of a successful but highly flawed warlord. There is a more than a touch of Shakespearean tragedy
Well written, captivating.
Nader Shah was a bloodthirsty power hungry control freak who did slaughter thousands due to mental illness but he was also a great general. in fact he made have been the best general Persia ( Iran) ever saw, and one of the greatest commanders of the 18th century. he invaded India, Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Oman, and the Caucasus, battling the Ottoman Turks and Russia as well as the Mughal Empire. the book is a very good read on this great military commander.
