I read years ago a biography of the lives of the Aga Khans, it is called "Throne of Gold"
by Anne Edwards, I have always been a big fan of the Aga Khans & descendants, also the one that married Hollywood star of the 50's and 60's Rita Hayworth, their marriage was a big story at that time and I have the old photographs of their wedding & family, including The Begum. Keep in touch!
