ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The The Great Global Merchants and the Making of an Empire" open in 18th-century Iraq and follows at least six generations. At their height, the Sassoons traded opium, tea, silk, and jewels; the book charts their rise and fall in delectable detail. The author is a distant relative who seems just as pleased as anyone unrelated might be to uncover the grit and gains of a tribe of fascinating figures. The author's work is methodical, deeply researched, and presented with considered care for both the mundane and the marvelous. What could be salacious catnip for a Kitty Kelley is treated here with evenhanded seriousness.

Sassoon renders the intricacies of business and religion two things his subjects seldom take lightly. The book is at its best when the family's supercharged ambitions take center stage. Sassoon's account of the decentralization of family power is well-paced and supremely satisfying. Readers are treated through the second half of the book to a slow-motion sputtering out of David Sassoon's great machine. Knowing from the first page that this empire has crumbled allows you to mourn the sunset of a particular kind of existence.

Have a pleasant read!
